Our Coffee Table!!!!!

So...I bought this really old, scratched, broken, ugly wood colored coffee table at DI for really cheap. And I'm a project person...so I decided I'd fix it up a little bit and see how I like it...
This was the result:
Before:

During:

Home Depot sells this special laquer spray paint stuff that is made exclusively for projects like this...which is nice because it made my whole thing alot cheaper than it could have been...

After:

I LOVE IT!!!!

And so it begins...

I heard it through the grapevine that starting a blog is pretty much a must when it comes to this family... And since I happen to be a member of this family, I guess that means I need to start a blog. Unfortunately, I have Z-E-R-O knowledge of blogging. So if I'm doing it wrong, you're just going to have to deal with it. And if you happen to be scrutinizing the lack of creativity in the layout of this, cut me some slack. I'll get better, either that, or my darling husband will have to take over (oh dear...not used to saying that).

Either way, this first post, is ALL mine.

And I have NO idea what to say. So... I'm just going to... um... hmm. I guess I could start with just telling you the latest in our lives...

-We're Newlyweds
-Kyle bought a TV - a 42" flat screen "Vizio"...we got it for $580.00. YAY!! They normally go for $800 or so... It's a pretty sweet deal actually.
-We bought couches
-And slip covers
-I bought this really old, REALLY ugly wood looking coffee table thing that I'm going to fix up
(I'm actually kind of really excited about that... I like fixing things...I like projects)
-We're Newlyweds (our new night life is WAY better! ha - I might get in trouble for saying that)
-I got the flu on our honeymoon
-And got sick again last week
-Kyle's sick now
-This girl at work just told me I looked pregnant because I'm getting a little "pudgy"..that was sweet of her
- I'm NOT pregnant
-I painted my toe nails hot pink this morning, and of course because I'm a ditz, I dropped the nail polish in the tub and now our tub is pink :) (Kyle doesn't know about that yet...I'm kind of hoping he won't notice...
- We're Newlyweds
- I've decided to dye my hair...again..and put pink in it...
- I'm serious about the above information


I don't really know what else to tell you...This family talks a lot so I'm sure the majority of you already know like everything that's even remotely interesting. So I'm just going to put up some of my favorite wedding pictures :) I'm addicted to looking at them, it's really becoming a problem at work.

Enjoy!!

(Kyle will probably be posting our next post...)
