Dinner and Dancing

I choose to do a chili bar for dinner. I figured it was perfect for fall and who doesn't like chili. the cater made regular chili, white bean chicken chili, and vegetarian chili. All the regular chili toppings were available along with crackers and Fritos. We also served little slider sandwiches, just in case someone didn't like chili, and fresh fruit.



 After dinner was the cutting of the cake. We had both agreed not to do any cake in the face smashing.



 Then first dances…
I was nervous about our first dance. We danced to Michael Buble`'s Everything which is kind of fast and we had not practiced! Nobody fell so I count it as a success.
Dad and I danced to Edwin McCain's Walk with You. Let me just say it's a tear jerker. I had to listen to it over and over the months leading up to the wedding, so that I didn't cry like a baby. Mom and I tried to get dad to listen to it. We even played it for him. Well he didn't really listen and throughout the whole song he had tears rolling down his cheeks and a smile on his face.
Kev and his mom.
The set up. Cody brought everything with him, even his stage lights. Notice the dance floor in the background. It didn't get used mush since it wasn't under the tent. 
Once the rain stopped a few of utilized it. Dancing with my brother. He jerked me around so hard he almost pulled a boob out.
Dancing with the flower girl. She danced the WHOLE time. It was so cute, she would do exactly what I did. She loved holding her dress out and spinning.
 These next pictures are a series of pictures with my brother. You have to understand that my brother has always loved to pester me! He is known for taking food off of my plate and eating it. Well nothing chances. We are grown adults and he still loves to pester me and steal my food. Before these pictures, I had made a S'more and was talking to some friends when he came up behind me and ate it right out of my hand. He finally made me another one and that's where the pictures start. He tried to force it in my mouth.
I finally got and and was enjoying it, 

when he tries to steal it again.
Finally! Mine!

Football Merchandise

It's football season and Walmart has all their Razorback merchandise out. I was browsing the aisle the other day and saw these. I immediately thought whiskey! A great way to sneak liquor into the stadium. Of course the back says intended for water only. Yeah right! No one looks at this and says water.

And a Roof

They finished the roof up today! Back of the house. Front of the house. They use these to hold the plywood together.

House Exteriors

 I spend most of my free time these days staring at the freaking computer looking for ideas for our house. There is a site Houzz . It's my new addiction. If you haven't ever explored it check it out. You can type in anything dealing with houses and get thousands and thousands of pictures to browse through. I look at EVERYTHING and pin the things I like on Pinterest. This makes it so easy to go back and review favorites. I have several boards dedicated to various rooms and the outside of the house. My focus these days is on the exterior. Hopefully in the next two weeks I will have a house pad and be ready to frame the house. I  know that I want a metal roof (not sure what color), cedar columns, stone, and cedar siding/shingles. not sure about color combination, how much siding or how much stone, and the front porch and walkway (the front yard will be pretty steep). I'm on Spring Break this week so I plan on visiting some lumber yards so I get a closer look at certain materia...
