New Hairstyle!!!

So as I was looking at some pictures in my computer, I said to myself " Martha you need a change"! It seems I have had the same haircut for ever. Right after, I made up my mind of cutting my hair and made my appointment. So here is my before picture and after! It is a change. Heather, who is the lady who cut my hair, said it would look cute if I cut it shorter from the back and left it a little longer in the front. I trusted her, so I said "sure". I loved it! After she finished cutting my hair, I told her, "you know what, go ahead and cut the bangs". She was like, ok! I needed a change, and it looks cute! So what do you think? Im bringing sexy back! Hahahahaha... just kidding.. Ive always wanted to say that!

BEFORE

AFTER

Housewarming Party

After 8 months, we finally had our housewarming party! It was really fun. We were expecting close to 40-45 people, but only 35 showed up! Everything came out good though! Oh man.. the food was great! My lovely mom helped me cook the food. We cooked seafood! We love seafood. I was worried that some people might not like seafood, but there was actually only one person who didn't like seafood. It was Eri's older brother, but we knew he didn't like seafood. We made ceviche, crab salad, crab cakes (they came out yummy), chicken, beans, rice, potato salad, macaroni salad, Italian pasta salad and tons of junk food! I'm telling you, the food was delicious! Everyone loved the food! Even people who had never tasted what we made loved it! I'm glad. Everyone loved our house. We have done a lot of work, but we are still not finished! I think my next project is to stain the kitchen cabinets! Good luck with that Martha! :) I am a little scared of doing that, but I will risk it. I just cant imagine how they will turn out! Oh well, I will try my best. Some of the people that came to the party were outside, and I forgot to take pictures. It was too cold to be outside, but we had a fire pit and our tv outside (suns game). Thank you everyone who came to our housewarming party. It meant a lot to us having you at our housewarming party. Thank you for the gifts! I loved them!

Yuliana you are beautiful

Time is going by so fast! I remember when we found out my sister was pregnant, and now my niece is almost 3 months! She is just getting cuter and cuter every day!

Nice Backsplash

I just love working on our house. We had 4 parties to go to on Saturday night, but we only ended up going to two and to a bar to watch the UFC fight. After the fight, around 1:00 a.m. Eri and I decided to start working on the backsplash. Seriously, what couple works on putting tile after midnight? Only us! :) We are just perfect for each other. Before we went to see the fight, we stopped at Home Depot and bought all the tile. You should have seen me at the store. I had tons of tile laying on the floor coming up with a design.. hahaha.. People must have been, "whats up with that weirdo"? But I didn't care because I was so excited! So I did come up with the design and it turned out absolutely beautiful! Like always! :) I just love how all our projects turn out. So here are a few pictures of saturday night of us working on putting the backsplash. I will post pictures of our final project once it is complete! To finish, we just need to put the grout! So what you think?

These are the three different tiles we choose. The glass tile just looks beautiful!

New Logo

As you know, I have my etsy shop and its been going good. I sell handmade items, and I enjoy doing that. I really want to start making more items to sell, but decided that I needed a new logo. I love fancy scrolls and those cute birdie images. So I requested a custom logo on "Alchemy" and had 14 etsy sellers bid. They all had great logo designs but the one I absolutely loved was from TiamatDesign's Shop. Her work is awesome! After accepting her bid, and telling her what I wanted, this is what she came up with. I love my new logo!!! Now that I have my logo, I will order a custom logo stamp and start getting serious and making more stuff.
