Finally!

Hello Everyone!

I know it has been ages since my last post, (that seems to be the start to most of my post doesn't it?) Anyways, we have just been suuuuuper busy lately! In the last couple of months Joey and I have bought our first home and moved to College Station -which by the way has just been so fun! We spent quite a few nights sleeping on the floor but we have since fully furnished and decorated the whole apartment! (I'm quite proud of it if I do say so myself ;) Joey has burrowed hard into his studies -He is a mechanical engineering major at Texas A&M and I am a proud aggie wife! I have gotten a few jobs since I've been here. Jumping around a bit until I find the right one. Right now I am waiting tables at an adorable little restaurant called Maddens and I love it there! The food is to die for, the management is so nice and the owners are the sweetest little couple! There is one problem, I don't make a whole lot of money. So I picked up a 2nd job that's not as much fun. I sell subscriptions to the local newspaper. Yeah it's pretty lame but anything to bring in some bacon right?

If it makes you guys feel any better, this isn't my only project that has taken a back seat to the real world! My jewelry shop was put on hold for a while until we could get settled in. But I have been hard at work the last few days working on some new stuff so be prepared to see a bunch of new items up on the site! (and not just jewelry either!) That's right! I'm branching out! Also be checking back because I plan on posting some pictures of our new place here!

One last thing. I just have to tell you guys about my new found love/obsession! It's called Pinterest! Its fabulous! Go check it out and you will know what I mean! Be prepared though because you are about to start wasting a lot of time online!

Until next time...

The Iowa Adventure

Hey guys! Wow! It's already been almost a week since my first post! I'm just so exhausted when we get back to our hotel room every night to even think about writing a whole blog post! Joe and I are in Burlington, Iowa at the moment working on a job for my dad's company, North American Survey Corporation (or NASCORP for short). We basically have 155 miles that we are supposed to walk. Here is a video of what we do: My dad chose this job specifically for us because it was Joe's first time and it was supposed to be an easy one. Well, we get out on the right of way (The path we are supposed to walk) and it looks like this: So we are either pushing our way through very tall very thorny bushes, or we are navigating our way through very tall very sharp corn (which was only supposed to be ankle tall by now) :(  In two weeks we have made it  about 30 miles. So after walking through that all day Joey looks like this : Isn't he adorable? But today is our last day here so...

Honeymoon Part Dos!

Hello Everyone! Sorry I've been out of touch the last few days. My husband and I are on part 2 of our honeymoon, -A Carribean Cruise! It has been such a blast! There is so much to do on and off the boat and there is so much food It's insane! It's literally like a 5-star hotel on the water! Almost everything is included, our meals, movie in the room, room service, broadway shows, and I have to say the tax and duty free shopping is wonderful! Of course we have had our mishaps. For example, we had just boarded the ship and it hadn't even left the dock yet but we decided to go ahead and get some lunch at the fancy restaurant just to check it out. It's beautiful by the way and the food is delicious! Anyway, I had just recieved my steak and I accidentally spilled my water all over myself and my food! It turned out OK though because our waiter just brought me a brand new steak! How crazy is that!? It was awesome! (except for the part where our suitcase hadn't been deli...

The Waitressing Side of Life

Hello good readers! I have missed you all dearly :) Today I want to talk about something that I feel should be common knowledge but for some reason people don't seem to know: Restaurant Etiquette - With the main focus on how to treat your server As someone who has been a server for all of my young adult life I have declared myself an expert in the matter. Before we get started, let's take a sneak peek into the life of a server. Servers do not get to eat at the normal meal times. Servers make $2.13 an hour in the state of Texas. It varies from state to state but the general idea is that they are employed by the people they are waiting on. Servers do not get free food whenever they want. Servers have to smile constantly for hours at a time. - Regardless of how rude people are. Those are just a few of the things that servers have to deal with on a regular basis.  Now don't get me wrong, I love my job. The people I work with are nice, the food is delicious, and there i...
