Finally finished with the bathroom!

Soooo, I FINALLY finished my bathroom, it's been a long process. I finished putting up the border the other day, and I love how it turned out. I think it looks great. I also painted Aaron's bathroom with one of the gallons of paint that I had that was too blue for my bathroom. I think his bathroom turned out good too, i'll have to post a picture sometime, it's definitely not as bland as it used to be and it gives me something to do while he's fishing, lol....So on to painting my bedroom next, but I don't know what to do with it, anyone have any ideas?

Aaron had another tournament this last Saturday. He was first out of the money with 10.4 pounds, the last paying position was 8th place with 10.5 pounds, bummer! I think his next tournament is in two weeks. Not much else going on, just trying to get ready for the holidays.... I work wednesday night, then I'm going to go to sleep for about 4 hrs and then Aaron and I are heading out to his parents house for Thanksgiving, I can't wait to eat a yummy dinner!

Hope everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving!

My Bathroom.....

It's been an okay couple weeks, staying busy, that's for sure! I finished painting my bathroom in my room but decided the color was too green, I wanted something a little more blue, so I got a different color, painted a little and didn't like that color either, was a little too blue, lol. So I finally found a color that matched the border I have, so I just have to finish painting that color hopefully this week, I'll post some pics of my bathroom.....

Work has been getting busier lately, lots of bugs going around. I think I caught something from one of the kids, was just feeling a little lousy all week and got sicker thursday in the middle of the night, feeling better now though, just wish this headache would stay away.....

Aaron's been doing a lot of fishing every weekend. He had a tournament all last weekend at Shasta, we went to Raffle afterwards and won 6 times, so that was cool. Aaron seems to think i'm good luck so he brought me, cause last year he didn't win at all.... I guess it worked :) He won a bunch of fishing lures, hats, a reel, oil for the boat, fishing line, etc. Of course he shared some with me :) He took me out fishing today and the bite was horrible. I had about 8 bites but none of them were biting very aggresively, didn't get any in the boat :( Aaron did much better..... At the end of the day we were waiting for his friend to back the boat down the ramp to load it and we had to wait for about 10 min so I decided to put the line back in cause I was determined to catch at least one fish today, and guess what? I caught one, finally! It was a small one, but at least I could say I caught one, lol. He has a tournament tomorrow so hopefully he'll do better than today!

I have to say I love having seasons here! There were never seasons on the coast just a mild temp change from about 55 in winter to 65 in summer, with a lot of variations in between (and always cloudy!). Here it has been beautiful lately, all the trees are changing, the air is crisp but the sun is still shining almost everyday, I love it! Mt. Shasta and Mt. Lassen now have snow and are gorgeous as well. I absolutely love all these trees that are changing colors too, I know that seems silly but growing up without all the color changes, I really notice it now. I had to take a couple pictures the other day b/c I thought they were so pretty.

Carving my pumpkin

Well, I'm a little late on posting but I've had a good week :)

I ended up staying up till about 3:30 in the morning last Saturday and painted part of my bathroom and watched a movie. It was relaxing. Then I slept in, ran a few errands and went to work Saturday night. Aaron and his fishing partner ended up getting the last paying position in their tournament so that was good for him. They fished all day Saturday and Sunday on Shasta Lake.

Monday was fun. I carved my pumpkin, it was the first time I ever used one of those stencils that you get with the little pumpkin carving kits, it actually worked pretty well. I got an extra pumpkin for Aaron but he didn't want to carve it (apparently he thinks adults don't carve pumpkins, lol) so his roomate Wayne carved it. They both turned out really well, and i got some of those little battery operated tea lights that change colors so the pumpkins looked really neat. Aaron took a few pictures using some of his photo tricks, they turned out pretty well.

Tuesday Aaron and I went to the Riverpark in Anderson after he got off work. We went for a walk and did a little fishing in the pond. I didn't catch anything but Aaron caught a nice one, i'll post a picture of it. We stayed out until right after sunset, we got a few nice pictures of the cool fall evening. When we got back to his house we ate a yummy pot roast that I had put on in the morning, it turned out really good. I'm getting much better at cooking now that I actually have someone to cook for. Although I won't mention the Zucchini bread that I made, lol..........

I worked Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. Yes I had to work halloween :( It wasn't too bad because my co-worker that I worked with is super funny and very entertaining so we had a fun night, but it was a busy one too! We didn't get any trauma's in my dept but it must just have been busy cause it was Halloween because we were on our feet all night long, I was so ready to go to sleep when I got home on Saturday morning.

Saturday night Aaron and I went to dinner with two other couples and then we went to one of the couples homes and played Family Fued and Catchphrase, it was really fun. I love playing games. And of course the girls beat the boys! lol :) On Sunday Aaron and I went back to the riverpark to do a little fishing. We were going to go out on Shasta but Aaron went out on Saturday and it was really windy and rainy and he thought it would be to yucky out for me on Sunday, so we just went to the local pond, it actually wasn't too bad of a day and we probably would have had better luck on the lake but it was fine, we had a relaxing day and watched some TV and hung out on the couch.

Not much else going on, I made my favorite dinner tonight. Meatballs, Mashed potatoes and Corn, I still mix it all together, just like I did when I was a kid, it just tastes better to me that way :) And I made a pumpkin cake today from scratch and it was actually edible :) I work the next 3 nights so i'm hoping it'll be a good week.

The pictures I have on this computer are very small, I will post some bigger ones tomorrow...........
