Excited for the New Year!

I can't help it.

Every New Year's Eve excites me. It also helps because I normally follow through with my New Years resolutions. In fact, since 2007, I have completed or worked on every resolution I set for myself.

When I think of the New Year, I feel energized. I feel like I can accomplish things. And that's a great feeling. I plan on making special paper, purple with silver stars, to put my resolutions on this year. I may make one of the same color for Jenny, or maybe the paper will be pink. Not sure yet. ^_^

On New Year's Eve, Jenny's mom is going to serve fresh tacos and for dessert, ice cream. Mmmm.

I still need to post what I got for Christmas. Maybe later today. ^_^

I just think this New Year will truly be empowering and I hope I'm right. I'm excited, are you?

Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!!!

I haven't updated in forever, however I still log in at least once a week and read the blogs I follow. I also redesigned my blog and header (again.)

Anyway, as Jenny and I live with her parents, our Christmas decorating is limited to one room; our bedroom. This year we bought our first Christmas tree, which is all white with multicolor lights and the ornament colors are: Hot pink (disco balls!), Blue, Silver and Glitter Silver. ^_^

The tinsel is blue/silver and gold, our star is frosted and has holly leaves and berries on it and our tree skirt is pale gold with glittery gold swirls all over it.

Jen and I also have a tradition of buying an ornament for our tree (even before we had one together!) for every year. We have one from 2004, our first Christmas as a couple, up until now!

Anyway, here are some pictures!!!






















Our tree!















Our 2009 ornament











Christmas Ornaments: Glittery doves, heart wreath with bell, Snoopy on a hamburger, white crocheted kitty in a stocking, our first Christmas ornament that reads "Our First Christmas 2004", a little cardinal and his bird house and two silver doves. <3 them all.












Christmas Ornaments 2: Little cat ornament that our sisters sent us, one of our pine cones, a little bear in a glittery red holiday dress and hat, the beautiful lighthouse ornament Jenny gave me years ago (I love lighthouses!), and another Snoopy ornament. ^_^ <2 them all too!



















Our star!



















Our entertainment system! And as I've mentioned before, we're gamers/geeks. ^_^



















Santa Light that Jen got from Avon.
























Santa door hanger!
















Our window decorations, all hand made by Jenny's mom, except for the stocking in the middle which is full of cat toys for our kitty. ^_^

Have a Merry Christmas, a Happy Holiday and a great Winter Season!

- Angie, Jenny and little Wedgie the Cat.

I'm alive. I'm alllllive!

Hello everyone!

I am alive, I just rarely update... Why? Because, to be honest, I don't fit in with most 20-something bloggers. I can't cook... I love gaming... I'm a complete geek/nerd... My wife and I don't have kids, nor do we really want to adopt right now... I don't have a career.

However, none of these things are bad things. In fact, all of them make me VERY VERY happy. Except the career part. The thing is, I just don't know where to look for other geeky gamer girls... Who also want to talk about cooking, cleaning, shopping, etc.

But oh wells!

Jen and I have started a new hobby... D&D... To be honest, I am shy as shit (with some stuff.) I am extremely nervous about talking like my character... However, I am SO excited to start this new hobby.

Also, WE GOT OUR FIRST CHRISTMAS TREE as a couple! IT IS BEAUTIFUL!!!

It's white, with multi-color lights. And ornament wise, we have our collection of year ornaments. Every year we get an ornament. We have one for our first year, when we were dating and all the way up to now... This one is a silver heart with "Today, Tomorrow, Always" on it and below that "2009" ^_^

Anyway, we also bought blue, silver and silver glitter ball ornaments, pink disco ball ornaments (I think a white tree with pink, teal/blue and purple ornaments will be AWESOME), two silver glitter dove ornaments, blue tinsel, gold tinsel, pine cones and a beautiful star, with holly leaves and berries on it.

Soooooooo so happy!!!

Lately I've just loved white, pink, teal and purple together. ^_^

Hello (Cupcake!)

Hello everyone! (Does anyone even read this blog anymore?)

I'm back! I took a break from blogging, as Jenny and I had gotten a new job, we made some new friends, I got a(nother) cold, we gave up our ferret and our job (which was quite enjoyable, actually) ended... Which brings me back to blogging.

We've been applying to various places, hoping some new (and awesome) job will come along. So, fingers crossed!

Also, for our anniversary, my sisters (who live far, far away) sent us a big box of gifts. And the theme was... BAKING! Baking cupcakes, to be exact. They even sent us the "Hello Cupcake!" book. Tonight we made little (and big) cupcakes, with sweet delicious frosting and yellow marshmallows. They were shaped like popcorn and then put in paper popcorn "cups."

They came out AWESOME! And sooo adorable!

I'll have to take pictures. *nods*

Anyway, that is all for now. Oh yes, I also updated my blog so it doesn't look so... Summer-y.
