New countertops!

Well, Clay and I are finally getting rid of those old baby blues! Thursday we're having the installer come over and install new formica countertops and a tile backsplash. We would love to do granite, but at this point in time, we just can't afford it. Formica has come a long way though and I can't wait to see what it looks it! :-)

Update on the floors

Well, we had a plumber come out Friday to look at the floord and I am ecstatic to report the it seems they are fine! I am sooo happy to hear this. I was terrified it was going to cost us thousands to fix both of our bathroom floors. I am soo thankful it is okay!!

So frustrating...I need to escape!

I am so excited about Kentucky! Soooo excited. I can't wait to see my family and some good friends and escape from this place. Things here have been so stressful, frustrating, and just overwhelming. We are having a plumber come tomorrow. Apparently Clay wasn't totally knowledgable (not blaming him...he did the best he could) when it came time to removing and replacing a toilet (he did this when he put the new vinyl tiles in both of the bathrooms)....so we are having a plumber come out tomorrow to 1. replace the wax seal that Clay should have replaced when he put the toilets back and 2. look at the flooring to see if we (hopefully not!) will have to replace the vinyl and subfloor. Sooo frustrating. It just feels like one thing after another. First, the Jeep had to have some work on it that wasn't (conveniently) covered under the warranty for a total of $1000 and now this! I am just praying it's not going to cost us a ton of money! We just had our double doors replaced into one, Clay went to Fl, Clay bought a bike, and I just bought the plane ticket to KY....lots of expenses lately! Too many expenses! Please pray that it works out and that the toilets haven't leaked and that we don't need new subflooring!

We're going to Kentucky and VA Beach!

Well...Kaylee and I are officially going to Kentucky and I am going to VA Beach in August/September! For 2 weeks, I will have the opportunity to visit with friends and family in Kentucky and VA Beach and let me tell you...I am excited!! My sister in law, Jill, is going to come up from Key West. Kaylee and I will finally get to meet precious little Makenlee! I am going to get to go to VA Beach and visit with two of the greatest gals ever AND run a half marathon with them (sans Kaylee!)....can I say how excited I am for a girl's weekend without a little one?!?! I LOVE Kaylee with all of my heart...but it's been long time since I've had a girl's night/weekend all to myself! Call me selfish, but I am sooo excited to enjoy myself...especially since Clay goes to the boat in August and will likely be deployable very soon after that! Who knows when the next time I'll get this chance will be! Sooooo excited!!!!! :o)
