Sadly, almost a year has passed since my last post. Ironically (or not), it's been about a year since we started planning our new home! What a year it has been! Now we're moved in, unpacked, and back to normal... in a nicer, more homey place.
Here's what we've been up to over the past year.
Like I said, we built a house:
 |
| We got to see the progress from the very beginning |
 |
| Ahh... love it! (You should see the kitchen!) |
And an aquarium to go in it:
 |
| 90 gallon saltwater aquarium. The reef part is still in progress. |
 |
| Behind the scenes of the aquarium |
We vacationed... to the beach... and the mountains:
 |
| We can't just lounge at the beach... |
 |
| Or catch normal, small fishies |
 |
| Thanks for the photo, Jessica! |

My mom turned 50 years young, so my sisters and I threw her a surprise birthday party. Her BFF flew in from Waco, TX, and I dabbled in the cake making business:
I joined Pinterest. Best mistake of my life!
And used new kitchen and sewing/craft rooms to their fullest potential:
