The house is done!!!

This weekend Bliss and I **finally** finished the house!! We've lived in it for over a year and half and just now finished all the painting. I know, I know...its sad. We had most of it done. A few months ago I finally got a hair on my ass and got started. Two friends of ours, Jen & Gabe, came over one day and helped Bliss and I some. Then a couple weeks ago, Jen and my friend Ashley came over and helped me finish up almost everything. We painted until 2 am! Talk about some damn good friends. When we took the tape off in the red dining room, it took off all the paint so we had a ring of white up buy the ceiling. Oh was I pissed. But now that is fixed and we touched up a few other places that were looking nasty since the rest of the paint in the house is a year and a half old now. and its done!! Once I get it all cleaned up I'll post some pics of it.

This weekend I'm throwing a bridal shower for Ashley. Hence the rush to get the house done :) I'm excited about it! I hope that its a good one for her. Still trying to come up with games to play. I'm excited about being in her wedding too. The dress she picked out is great. And Bliss and I are both in her wedding, me the maid of honor and Bliss the best man, so we get to walk down the aisle as a test run...cool huh?

Our wedding plans haven't progressed much. I need to find a place for us to have the reception that will fit in to our budget and fit about 100 people. I'm going to call a few places tomorrow and see what I can find. Wish me luck!!
