County Road 12 South

This

is our casa!

The place we reside

Where we call home

Our living room, if you look to the left when you come in our front door.

This is the entry way from the kitchen

Our living room

Sorry its such a bad picture.

Zee Kitchen

our dinning room, with our Fiesta ware (which we LOVE!)

Dinning room wall and hall way to the guest bathroom & 2 guest rooms

 

This bathroom might be my favorite room of the whole house, our land-lords told us we could re-paint if we hated the color but, I thought it was perfect for the shower curtain I got on CLEARANCE!!! at Target a year ago (just cuz I liked it so much!)

These are the two guest rooms, Jeb dubbed the smaller one on the west side of the house my "craft room" so it has all of my junk but needs a bed if anyone has one to get rid of!

This room gets so much sunlight & has a direct view to the best neighbors, (More on them later,) But ALSO needs a bed! (wink wink!)

Our bedroom is on the south side of the house, through the door next to the TV

We got to pick the colors for our room & I love it! Jeb does too, but I seriously love turning on the lamps by our bed every evening & really like how cozy if feels in there!

Our moms' found the comforter and pillow set on sale in PA last summer, & my dad made us the night stands as part of our wedding present! The dresser below was the third piece. Jeb started it in High School wood shop & my dad finished it for us!

our bathroom and WONDERFUL closet is on the south west side of the house

Our bathroom is the only room in the house that isn't remodeled, so we hope if we stay here long enough our land-lords will let us tackle the project!

AND the best biggest closet I have ever had! 

Now, meet our neighbors!

I refer to them as "the girls" 

These two are my favorite! They are so friendly.

One last thing, I need to introduce you to "the beast"!

This was our wedding gift from Jeb's parents and we LOVE it! Grilling is our favorite way to prepare meals!

Here are a few more pictures from our place

 

 And lastly, my favorite part of Jeb's job

Lookie Lookie Lemon Cookie!

So, I found my first “license required” job about a week ago. So far business is slow but today was the first day this ad ran in the local paper.

Other things:

We have yet to receive our professional pictures from the wedding but as soon as we do, I will be sure to post them for everyone to see!

We are quite moved into our little home and loving it! Our bed room is being painted this weekend so you can expect to see our casa soon! For now I’ll leave you with this little preview.

Jeb has been at a horse show since Monday, I can almost, almost, ALMOST say I’m taking it gracefully but I’m blaming slow business & I’m going to drive down to Pueblo this weekend to see my cowboy, sister & HER new digs, & make a trip to Sam’s. (Maybe a bit boring tmi but I’ve been braving the world on my own the last few days.)

June

Here some pictures I remembered to capture during the whirl wind two weeks I have had.

Loved it.

 Every second.

But I honestly don’t have interesting stories to go along with all of them,

I did get to spend some extra time with this hunk during the last two weeks.

Headbands for the flower girls in the wedding, not quite sure I like them though. They might be “misplaced” before that day comes a knockin.

 

Made, or “re-made” some jugs.

Politically correct, a pickle jar & a Ranch dressing jug.

One is for change, cuz this isn’t cutting it.

 And the other is for all our “memories” ticket stubs, programs, most recently 3D glasses from Avengers

SAWOOON

  I get to marry him in 34 days.

I think that is enough for one month!

This next month is full of quick day trips to Greeley, for last minute fittings, showers & bachelorette parties.

Baseball games, Karly's State Convention in Pueblo, hair doos, cuts and colors

A little family reunion in Glenwood, a horse show, dog, chicken and house watching.

Getting my hair all ready for the big day and after June, there are only 7 days left until I will be a Stoltzfus.

BRING IT ON!!!

Blogity Blog Blog

I know it has been absolutely way to long since I wrote last, BUT! I have a few Instagram photos to share that should make up for it!

And, may I just say that um, HELLO Instagram is by far the coolest phone app you can ever have! I feel like a real life photographer most days I get the chance to use it!

Oh, and something else, WHERE DID APRIL GO?!? Don’t get me wrong I absolutely love that time is just FLYING BY but seriously?!? Wasn’t it just St. Patrick’s day?

Tomorrow marks 75 days until my wedding.. I have been making myself stay away from my i-tunes account and blank CDs to hopefully not drive everyone crazy with all the oldies that have to do with wedding bells, chapels, & “I will follow him, follow him wherever he may go…”

My Pandora on the other hand… is about Wedding-ed out!

Country wedding

Oldies Wedding

Wedding songs

Love songs

BLAHH you would think I am a sappy lovey dovey person or something, in all honesty I totally am.

I’m such a sucker for romance!

 Alright so things that have been happening for real:

Still loving my waitressing job

Invitations are waiting to be addressed and stuffed into envelopes but other than that are completely done!

I have done more hair in the last two weeks than I ever remember doing  since out of school (AND LOVE IT!!!) I totally miss doing hair every day all day.

Jeb and his boss, Blue, have been working on finding us a place to live in and have almost 100% got something figured out! It’s a 3 bedroom 2 bath house close to an older couple’s home whom we would be renting from. I haven’t had the chance to go down and look at it yet, but Jeb did a great job filling me in on all the details. Here’s what that conversation sounded like:

Me: “So what did you think of it?”

Jeb: “It’s really nice! They have been working on re-doing all the inside, I think you really will like the kitchen.”

Me: “Really?!? (Sheer excitement) what does it look like?

Jeb: “Well they have all pretty new appliances and dark brown cabinets; you know that silver look that looks so clean... That’s what the oven dishwasher and fridge is like”

“Oh! And the guest bathroom is painted green, like the green you like! Not dark green or forest green and not neon either just like you like!”

That’s just a taste but I won’t bore you with the rest J

One of the best parts is that they are willing to drop their rent per month if we agree to do some work once a month.

It’s almost like a dream come true, I CAN NOT WAIT to start projects and Jeb is just as excited he keeps talking to both of our very handy dads about things that we could do and things that the woman we will be renting from has asked him if we could do

.

Now we just hope they let us have a dog. And if not I will put my dreams of naming our bull mastiff Skynard on hold for a few years.

Now for my many DIY projects I finished this month:

These are obviously not a project, these are my wedding boots!
