30th Birthday

So my 30th birthday was last week and my hubby made sure it was a great one. Started the morning with breakfast that he had a candle on :) When I got home from work the house was completely clean (floor mopped too) and flowers waiting for me. I knew he more planned just by the look on his face (he's so cute when he has something up he sleeve) He took me out for Sushi (my favorite) At one point he reached into his coat pocket and pulled this out

I think every girl knows where the tiny blue box comes from

That's right he went to Tiffany's. I hadn't ever hinted at it. I was shocked! I'm sure some of the people in the restaurant thought he was proposing. My next thought is what did he get there. I knew whatever was in the box he picked out by himself. Well this is what was inside...

He got my 3.0 carat Amethyst earrings. 3.0 for 30 year (man 50 years is going to be good! lol)

HE DID GOOD!!! HE'S A KEEPER!!!

AC UPDATE

UPDATE: Our AC has been installed!!! Friday morning was my 30th birthday and I was up getting ready for work when Chase said I think there's a package for you. With it being my birthday I thought who would be sending me something. Thinking it was just fedex and they would just drop it off at the door I come out in only a robe to find out it was the AC contractor! They were suppose to have installed it the day before but no surprise they didn't show or call. The last thing I was thinking was the AC people would be at my house at 8am! The funny thing was well I was getting dress I was rehearsing what I was going to say to them about the fact they didn't show it was taking MONTHS to get it.

Contractors

Why is it sometimes you get a GREAT contractor and other make you want to pull out your hair? Our AC recently (or not so recently) went out (Aug 29 to be exact) We have 2 units so it didn't send us to a hotel or hotel parents :) We had it looked at and sure enough we needed a new one (or that's what we heard the contractor say) We still have our home warranty so we were going through them (side note we've had REALLY good luck with our warranty up to this point) So after back and forth we learn it's just a part that's getting replace but when it came in it was the WRONG part so now we are getting a NEW unit for our "troubles". Last week we were suppose to get this so call NEW unit and last Thursday I got a call from our contractor say "the unit has a big dent in it and they were going to have a to order another one" ARE YOU KIDDING ME???? So here we are over 45 days later with NO AC!! Luckly it's been cold. The rain is the what the contactor is "saying" the delay is. Funny thing about the rain is on Sept 11 when all the rain started we had a roof leaked which mess up not only the roof but the ceiling and hard wood floors. In a matter of 2.5 weeks we had our insurance check, and ALL the work done (which involved 4 contractors plus insurance) go figure. I'm glad I'm a pretty laid back person through all of this and that's it's not 100 degrees out.

7 month Vacation

So it appears I told a 7 month vacation from my blog. If only it was a 7 month real vacation. I had almost forgotten I had a blog but every now and then a friend will remind me. So here I am trying to think what has happen over the last 7 months. Well alot but I'm not writing a book. What's going on now! This week Chase and I are having a new patio created (pictures to come) We had been talking about doing it for awhile and just decided to do it. We are also getting landscaping done but that may not be for a couple of weeks. In other exciting news Chase got a new job this week in an industry he's passionate about! I'm so happy and proud of him for this next chapter. Now the goal is to keep this more up to date.
