And A Puppy Makes Four!

Steven has been wanting a dog FOREVER! I told him not until we have a fence. We have a huge backyard but in Missouri they don't believe in fences which drives me CRAZY because all the other dogs use my yard. ick! Now that we got orders to Beale I've decided to get Steven a puppy once we get settled into a house! We are looking for a dog that can run on trails with Steven when he mountain bikes. That can run, walk, or ride with me. Be a great guard dog, great with kids (eventually), a total lovebug, and also get along with our cat! We've been reading up about the different breeds and also been watching all the dog shows on tv. These are the breeds we've been thinking about! Enjoy all the cute pics!


First is a Rhodesian Ridgeback! They are originally from Africa and were breed to protect hunters from lions! Totally B.A.! As you can tell in the second picture, their fur along their spine grows the opposite way! sooooo beautiful and cute!



Next is the Weimaraner. Steven and I are soooo in love with this dog. Weimie owners say that they always have to be next to you and touching you. A big snuggle bug, but still likes to be out and active! I love their grey coloring and their eyes are absolutely gorgeous! <3






A couple months ago a house on my way to base had a litter of Doberman Pinscher puppies that I fell in love with. Every time I drove by the house I slowed down so I could see them better! Steven has a riding buddy who lives in Blue Springs that has two. They are great guard dogs and good with kids! Not sure if I like the traditional brown and black or the red! We watching the AKC dog show and the Doberman's name was Fifi! haha thought that was funny!


Gotta put a pic of them with their ears! hehe


Hope you enjoyed all of our puppy pics and picks! hehe Within the next year I'll be blogging about a new four legged addition to our family!

Home Sweet Home Ideas!

Lately, I haven't had much to blog about other than I'm SOOOOOO excited that we are moving back in May. Work has been madness! We had to fire the other manager so I took on his hours. Super long days with the little time off cleaning up the house.
The weather here has been gorgeous and we have been taking advantage of it. The other day it was 65 so we drove to the city. Steven went mountain biking and I went shopping! I decided to go to Bed Bath and Beyond and I fell in LOVE with this bed set. It's not girly or flowery.


This is the one I saw in the store. SOOO gorgeous. Way too pricey, but I love the color combinations!

 This one is also really nice and better priced! Bed in a bag! I want a neutral color with an accent color that makes it pop!

Next I went to World Market which is conveniently located next door! I feel in love with this table and matching buffet!

I'm thinking black, NO bench.

Table by itself. Can seat up to 8 people with the leaf!!!

 Here's the buffet. Imagine it in black!

Thinking of a chair like this, just not sure about the color.

 I'd really like an entertainment center that we could store all of our movies and all of Steven's XBOX stuff, but also display some items. Steven has a ton of trophies for a lack of words from winning Airmen of the quarter. It would nice for them to be displayed so everyone can see instead of in our room going unnoticed!

Well I hope you guys enjoyed my idea blog. I've been dreaming of this for a while and after that day of looking around in those two stores it's becoming real that we really are moving home! We don't know how long it will take for us to find a house, but when we do we are going to have a big housewarming/welcome home celebration! :) See you soon everyone!!!!
