So Much New News!

By -
Dean Has started a new better paying job in the past two months. It was a God send for our little family. But the downside is that its quite a ways from home so in order to save money on gas Dean has been staying with his grandparents through out the week and coming home on the weekends. It has been tough only seeing each other on the weekends. If it weren't for Skype and unlimited calling we would be completely lost! I'm very Thankful for Dean's wonderful, loving grandparents they have been with us at every bump in the frustrating road of our semi- long distance marriage. 

 And in the midst of all this the house next door to Gram and Gramps has come up for rent! We are so excited to be able to say that it will be our first home! Yes, you heard me correctly. Our FIRST home! 
No, we wont own it but we will be able to make kinda ours by putting our touches on it. The previous tenants that have lived there in the past 10 years have slowly wrecked it. So we have an agreement to do the repairs, with them supplying the materials and us the time and labor for a low rent. 

 So I plan on documenting and sharing our new home's ups and downs. The best quote about a home i can remember came out of a movie that I cannot remember the name of but any way here it is. 
" A House Filled With Love Has Elastic Walls."  And I hope to fill our home with soo much LOVE!  

 Stay tuned for posts about packing, moving, patching walls, paint colors, floor repairs and much much more.

And we've been working hard..... Our "new to us" house is FINALLY empty! And we have been working hard for the past few days on getting it kinda cleaned up. We've have taken a big job under our belts and we're just grabbing roots and growling all the way.                                                                              This is littlest bedroom in the house, its going to be our guest room.  To get it up to snuff its going to need wall, door repairs, new carpet, paint and windows.   This is the upstairs bathroom. Don't you just love our harvest gold bathtub? In order to hide the hideous, I'm going to paint the walls a golden yellow.  To get it looking better it needs, new flooring, vanity, mirror, and paint.    This is going to be our room....

Soup its Whats for Supper !

By -
Since I was a little girl I have always loved Olive Garden. Mainly all you can eat soup, bread sticks and salad. Ok, ok, nix the salad in that. I love soup and bread sticks!  When they came out with Zuppa Tuscana not only was I in love with it but my whole family was. We have been known to sit and analyze our bowls of soup to try and figure out what makes it the best.  I never tried to make it until after I married Dean. My first try I followed a copy-cat recipe. It was ok but it wasn't "IT".   While cruising along the produce department of the grocery store I decided to try and make Zuppa again. I'm so glad I did.  But this time I didn't use a recipe. I used my taste buds and memory of what it should taste like.  It was so close to having the actual stuff that in a blind taste test it would have been very,very close.  Along with the soup I set the bread machine out to mix up some dough for bread sticks. They turned out great as well. The recipe for...
