Busy Bass


 Wow! It has been pretty busy around here the past couple weeks! In the words of my sweet mama "Y'all aren't just playing house anymore." We are always on the go, but we have a good time. With me back in school and work and house work to get done...We stay busy. We have been trying to get things done around the house. It is coming along. We will post pictures soon. Our neighbors keep us on our toes with getting the yard done. Their yards are always perfect. I swear it must get mowed and perfected by fairies while we sleep! :) Ben does a great job keeping the yard looking nice. We did quite a bit of yard work on Saturday. We mowed. Trimmed hedges. Weeded flowers. and Sweated!! With the help of one of our favorite little buddies Mannie, we managed to get it all done.
 Our sweet helper as the "Statue of Mannerty" :)

 Wearing Ben's "SPECIAL" hat
 Daisy was hot too. 
 The story behind Ben's hat.
Ben's dad has had a hat like this for years, so Ben asks he dad where he can get one because they are sooo stylish and awesome. So Mr. Phillip (Ben's dad) just gives him one of his. Ben wears it ALL OF THE TIME!! So sweet....
Even though we get pretty busy, we make time to have fun! We love to play LIFE! I got to win this game, but Ben usually beats me!!


and of course we ALWAYS make time to eat some yummy dinner. Ben says I have become a good cook...I think he just has to say that. :) 
We are still having the time of our lives!

Another new Bass?



We have a new addition to our little family! We got a new 12 week old puppy. We named her Daisy. We adopted her from the Bainbridge Animal Shelter today and she is precious. She already adds so much joy to our home, well when she is not peeing or pooping all over the place. :/  She is completely obsessed with Ben. Follows him everywhere. 


Meet Daisy Mae Bass.


Two sweet sleepy heads.



Today also makes 4 weeks that we have been married! I count my blessings every single day, and Ben is always one of them! 
My favorite quote (of the moment) is "Every love story is beautiful, but ours is favorite."
I am so grateful that we get to live our love story everyday! 
Thanks for reading about our silly life.

A Little of Lately

Lately: 
1. Laundry: oh so much laundry. Being married has opened my eyes to all those years that my Mama washed, dried, & folded all of our clothes. Thanks Mom! Now can you please come over and help me hang some clothes! ;) Oh and the hangers...I think I may have bought walmart out, we have so much clothes.
2. Cooking: Wow it takes a lot more effort than I thought to actually decide what to have, then on to figuring how to cook it. Thank goodness Ben has complete patience with me.
3. Work&School: Figuring out work and school schedules is quite complicated at times. One of us here today the other somewhere else, 24 hour shifts and tests and it goes on...






But, somehow we make it all work. We stay pretty busy, but we also have some pretty awesome people in our lives that help make everything a little easier. Ben helps me keep my head on straight and I am so grateful for him. That's it for now. Have fun!
