Marine Corp Ball

Well this is a little late because well I had to do it. But this is the first time that Chelsea and I had the opportunity to experience the Marine Corp Ball together. Last year Chelsea was mad because I did not invite her but now she is all smiles. This year was a very special year because the Commandant of the Marine Corp was there to grace us with his presence. Note Chelsea's beautiful dress that is modest, it took forever to find and in the end Chelsea sewed on the black cardigan, she rocks. Although the blues that I am wearing are a bit snug you must notice the corporal chevrons promotions rock. I hope you enjoy the pictures as much as we enjoyed the party.

Washington DC!!!!!

This thanksgiving we got the amazing opportunity to go to Washington D.C.!!! I was so excited because I had never been there before and Danny was excited because D.C. is his favorite city. Danny's sister Ann was nice enough to have us over and stay at her house and we couldn't have asked for a better holiday. Our friends Josh and Jess also live in D.C. so our trip was just full of fun times with awesome friends and family. So...... This is our tourguide Jessica, she is the best ever and very knowledgable...especially about good food.


I got to see Dorothy's ruby red slippers in the american history museum!! We also saw the star spangled banner there and it was uh-mAzing. Oh, and by the way, we also have to give jessica credit for all these pictures, someone, we won't mention names, forgot to charge his camera and so jessica was nice enough to take these for us on her camera.


This is a guy from the Korean War memorial, it was so uh-mazing, we saw it at night and it was awesome.

Danny got to see one of his fav's...Kermit the Frog!
Josh and Jess, we seriously love them and we miss them already. And here's just some more pictures from the trip. We won't go into details for all of our pictures. Sorry, I couldn't figure out how to get this double off so here we are again!

Our Humble Abode....

Basically my mom has been wondering what our house looks like and for some reason she thinks we live in the ghetto so we decided to put up this post to ensure her that we live in a nice neighborhood thats safe and family friendly. So here is our house. We really love it and it's perfect for us.

So one of our neighboors told me about this hidden nature trail the other day and so I did a little exploring and it was amazing!! It was so beautiful and after it taking over a week to get danny to go back with me, we finally took a nature walk together. So here are a few pictures of "nature" It is literally just behind our housing development.

Danny's Birthday!!

Danny's birthday was August 6th, which was forever ago, but I still wanted to post the couple pictures that we had from his special day. On his birthday we went to the Harley-Davidson store and walked around the mall to get out of the house. Then I made his favorite dinner which is ham and au gratin potatoes. The ham turned out o.k., the potatoes were another story. And lastly we had his birthday cake, another one of his favorites--real strawberry cake. I had a major problem with the frosting which you can see in the pictures. Instead of being a nice thick and creamy frosting, it was basically a watery melted frosting, but it still tasted good, it was just ugly. Overall danny says he had a great birthday and I hope by his next birthday my cooking skills will have improved.

Date Night!!

Danny and I took our night off to go out on a date. It was actually so so cute because we were in the living room together and then suddenly danny dissapeared. Then my phone rang and it was danny asking me out on a date. He planned the whole thing to a "T" and it was a perfect. We started with sushi, then went to miniature golf, got ice cream, and ended it with watching "Maid of Honor" at home. It was amazing and I couldn't ask for a better husband, he is awesome.

This is me waiting for my date to arrive......



We forgot to take a picture in the restaurant so this is us after dinner in the car...


I got a whole in 1!!!! I actually got two more and danny got one as well.

We found the zebra from zebra stripes gum and I took him for a ride

Here are some action shots....

My hot hubby!

HI everyone!

Well it seems like everyone has one of these things now and I guess it's time danny and I jumped on the bandwagon as well. I guess I'll just start with an update of what has been going on since we got married--

• We moved to Ypsilanti, MI...yes, it's a real place



• We have our own house and it's awesome (we even have our own rooms, mine is pink and his is blue)



• Danny goes to school



• We both work at Carrabba's



• Danny is having a blast with his brothers in the Marine Corp



• I am dying to get a kitten so I can have a new friend to keep me company while danny is gone

Well I'll try to keep this updated on the new and exciting things danny and I are doing. Look forward to danny's birthday video coming soon--it's pretty funny.
