It's a PARRRRTAY!!!!

OH! Today I am officially SIKED about next weekend! I have been kind of "down" about my Birthday (because I am getting old ), but today I have turned over a new leaf (just in time for the season, whew:) ) I AM PUMPED!!! We have planned a big Halloween Bash for my 27th Birthday, and everyone is to come in their best costume and there will be a prize for best dressed :) Sasha will be the best though! I know it :)
I have so much to do before this big bash, and just now getting pumped about it has kind of left me with not so much time :/. I am also really excited that my party is on Friday, Saturday is Halloween and then Sunday (the actual day of my Birthday) we are going to my favorite resturant of choice to celebrate with the rentals and in-laws. So the whole weekend will be jam packed with fun times!
Nicole has been taunting me with what my Brithday presie could be, and she is so siked about giving it to me that I am just beyond curious as to what it could possibly be??? She and I talk so much on a daily basis it is hard for me to remember what I could have mentioned to her that I wanted, and not to mention she says she has had it for some time now??? SHE IS GOOD!  Matthew has had a ton up his sleeve the past 2 weeks (planning my gift(s) ) he is the best at Brithday's, well any holiday really, he always out does himself and I end up with a ton of stuff just from him :) Do Not get me wrong, I am NOT complaining! I love it!! PUHLEASE, I am an only, I have been indulged in my entire life, and Matt has been sure to keep the indulgance going. My Nana has always said "I am NOT spoiled, I am indulged in" :) (Just to let you all know, who may be thinking I am spoiled rotten.... I'm NOT... Nana says :) )
My FIL is allowing me to have the whole day off on Friday to prepare for this fabulous event (there goes the indulgance again :) ). There is lots to decorate and lots to cook. We are going to attempt to transform our entire downstairs area into a "haunted experience". Mine and Matthew's (secret) costumes are not scary at all, quite frankly I think they are absolutely precious, and well suited.
I have lots in store for next week and tons of goodies for everyone coming to celebrate my special day, I am so excited and so thankful!
Keep posted, there will be some GREAT photos posted!!

**UNDER CONSTRUCTION**

I haven't updated in a few weeks, and Nicole (My Bestie, the blogging QUEEN) informed me that I needed to update... so here it is...
Anyone, who knows Matthew and I, knows that our home is ALWAYS under construction of some type, whether it be painting, flooring, painting, flooring, new kitchen cabinets, did I mention PAINTING and FLOORING?? Yeah well at our home, it never stops! and to add insult to injury I love to re-arrange the furniture, it gives me a sense of "newness". Needless to say Matthew stays very busy because of my infinite "Honey Do" list. I am always sure to reassure him of how beautiful it will all look when it is ALL done (batting my eyelashes and being sure that my baby blues are melting his heart :) ).
Our current project is our Kitchen. We are in the process of completely giving it a face lift. I have been so excited about this project, because it is the first thing you see when you enter our home. And it never really had the WOW factor and now... well, Now it is getting there. We used the original cabinets, but added several custom touches (photos to come).
SOOOO, Slap dab in the middle of this project I decided I had the URGE (might I go ahead and add just how much MY sweet, sweet Hubby just LOVES when I get these) to go all out and "re-do" our guest bathroom off of the kitchen, heck, the kitchen was getting soooooo much attention why not spread the love to the other rooms nearby? Only problem here, I HATE, I mean HATE painting. I put my brain to it and started on this venture all by myself, of course completely against what Matthew had said, all because I HAD to have the bathroom DONE. Well, after he heard about the umpteenth "oops"and "uhhht ohhh" he jumped in and unwillingly helped. Little did I know how difficult it was to paint a pale yellow, and the bathroom came to a halt after we realized it was going to be SEVERAL coats before it looked the way I wanted it. 4 weeks later and ALL BY MYSELF, I completed that bathroom and it looks absolutely beautiful. Kitchen is still not finished (almost) but my guest bathroom sure as heck looks GREAT! :)



I will be sure to keep all of you abreast of our current construction project. Like I said earlier, I promise to post the photos of our Kitchen (and of us) in its final stages soon :) I have a new camera on the way, this is the reason for no pictures currently.

Quality Time

This past weekend we did a lot of relaxing and catching up on Matthew, me & Sasha Pup time. Friday, I did not feel well all day, and started to come around that evening. We visited with the Floyd's and then had an early night. Saturday, I started my day with an AWESOME walk with Caroline Neikirk. She took me to this park by her that is called Little Mulberry Park, it is beautiful, and perfect weather for a nice long walk. I got home around noon to a spotless home, thanks to my spectacular Hubby who just wanted me to take it easy. We settled in and enjoyed a good dose of College football (GOOOO DAWGS!!), even though it was a heart breaker of a game :(, woke up Sunday and enjoyed a great morning of worship, came home and relaxed some more.

This weekend was much needed after all the traveling we have done in the past month, Matthew to Italy, me to NY, And time we have spent away from each other it was a breath of fresh air to just chill at home with my FAVE two ;)

Welcome!

Hi! Welcome to our blog, where I plan to keep our friends and family up to date and posted on all the happenings of our crrazy, yet LOVE filled life!
Matthew and I went to school together growing up, and I don't think either one of us had ever imagined we would be happily married one day.
I was born in Yonkers, NY and lived there until I was 9. My Mother and I moved to Georgia in 1992. My roots are Northern and I love to go back to NY to visit often, but I have most definetly been "southern fried" (as I like to say) Georgia is my home and where my heart is.
Matthew and I got engaged May 12, 2007 and married on November 10, 2007 in Playa del Carmen, Mexico which is located in the Riviera Maya about 1.5 hours south of Cancun. Our wedding was a dream come true, not only because I married my best friend, but because of the location and just to have a destination wedding was spectacular. I had never been out of the country, much less off the east coast, before our wedding and it was also super exciting to be able to experience that with Matthew!
Matthew and Carl (my Father-in-law) started a company 2 years ago January and this June they gave me the opportunity to quit my job and come work for them. It has been quite an adjustment, but a wonderful one. I would not have it any other way and cannot even think about how we did it before I worked for them.
Matthew and I live in our home town of Loganville with our sweet Sasha Pup, our 8 year old Rottweiler.
My life has been blessed in so many ways, and I am so thankful for all of it!

We hope you enjoy reading about the "goings on" with the M&J Cucuzza's :)
