Our pets!!!

Here is Otis, our 2 yr. old orange tabby. We rescued him from a local shelter....he was my wedding present from my husband. I named him Otis after the movie Milo and Otis. My dad died when I was 6 and that was the last movie I saw with him. Ever since I had always wanted an orange tabby named Otis.


As a lobster for Halloween.

This is Harriet, our 1.5 year old basset hound/ beagle mix. When I got through with the paper work for Otis and went to pick him up, Harriet had just gotten there. My husband had ALWAYS wanted a girl basset hound, and she looks just like a small one. I immediatly asked to be put on the list for her and a week later we brought her home. I gave her to my husband as his wedding present from me!

Our home!!

Our house was built in 1961 and was owned by my grandparents. It is the house that my mom and uncles grew up in! When my grandmother passed away, my grandpa just couldn't live there anymore. At that time, my then boyfriend (now DH) moved in with a friend and helped fix it up. We now rent it from my grandpa (only $100 a month!) and plan to buy it this summer when I graduate.

It is a 3 bedroom 1 bathroom ranch. It has a one car garage but a HUGE backyard! The basement is the size of the entire house, but is not finished.....yet. It is a walkout which is nice.

Our house is small, but it is perfect for us right now. Here are a few pics! I wish I had befores!!!

About us!

My husband and I grew up together in church and began dating in high school. The rest was history! After four years of dating he proposed, and five months later we were married! I am finishing up my last semester of my degree in music education and my husband is a recent grad from the fire academy. We are on the job hunt!

We got married on June 9, 2007 at the church we grew up in. We had two receptions- one at our church with cake and punch (the good ol' Baptist reception) and one that evening with dinner and dancing.

Here are a few of our favorite pics!
