Our New Addition

I'm sure you all are wondering why we haven't updated our blog in a while. Well, Sam and I have a new addition to our family. It's Sam's baby. We didn't want to tell anyone until it had arrived. It's a Dell Inspiron 530 desktop with a 22 inch flat screen monitor. It has an Intel Q6600 Core 2 with Quad Core Technology Processor at 2.4 Ghz with 4 GB of 800 Mhz ram. It has a 500 GB hard drive, an ATI 2600 video card with 256 MB of ram. Also, it has a DVD burner and a CD burner. It is SUPER quiet and it is SUPER fast. (BTW.....Sam's telling me what to write for this posting. I really don't know this much about our computer!) Ohhhhhhyeeeeee is it nice! Our other computer kind of kicked the bucket. We've been HIGHLY distracted because Sam bought me the Sims 2 game and that game is WAY addicting. Sam and I have already made our Sim characters (London and Chumballa) fall in love and marry each other! They are the CUTEST couple! Now that our computer monitor is nicer than our tv monitor....we now need a new tv!! Hahahha! It never ends! Once you upgrade one thing.....it just keeps spiraling.

Happy Anniversary! Holy cow, does time fly!!!!

Sam and I went to Lake Arrowhead this weekend. We had fun . . .

riding the boat tour,

looking at the MASSIVE homes there, (This is a 21,000 square foot home. The entire bottom level is a garage made for their 15 Ferrarris. Must be nice!)

eating WAY too much ice cream,
(my ice cream cone is on the right and it's only a single scoop! And yes, we both did eat it all! Hey, we're on vacation! :) )

going to the cute shops, , and just spending time together. Sadly, Sam has a HUGE test in his MBA class on the day of our anniversary (the 20th). So this was our anniversary trip. We still had fun, even if it was just for the day! 3 years of marriage down.....an eternity to go! :)!
Sam + Marcie = True Love!

Sam's "Weekend" Project

Sam's "Weekend" Project

This project was only suppose to last one weekend. It actually ended up taking 3 weekends. The girl who owned our house before us tried to kill our grape plants by chopping them down to the base. It didn't kill the grape plants, but it caused them to get vines that grew all along the bottom of our flower bed. One of the grape vines was 20-30 feet long!!! So, Sam made an arbor so that the grapes would have something to grow on. The grape plants sure look happier and our yard looks amazing! Didn't Sam do such a great job?!!? Nice work honey!!

One Pampered Girl!

I feel so pampered this week! Last Saturday (April 26th) , I got my hair done...which is my monthly ritual. Then on Friday (May 3rd), my carpool buddy FORCED me to get a manicure and a pedicure. I now have acrylic French tipped toes and boy do they look cute!! The following day, on Saturday, my Mom and I got Swedish massages for her birthday and Mother's Day. Oh that was heaven! You know, I could really get use to all of this pampering. It's a tough job, but I'll sure volunteer to do it!! If only life consisted of constant pampering.....*sigh*.
