A New Day

Hello all...so i've come to the conclusion that we are completely awful at our blog and I apologize for that! We have had a very stressful past week or so...we had finally heard back on "our" house and it turns out the offer was not enough...they wanted a lot more, which we were not able to do. We gave up all hope, but then yesterday we heard back saying we could do another offer, so we did. We now sit and wait...again and hope that this time it will go through. Fingers crossed please!  

We spend the last opening weekend snowboarding at Cannonsburg and needless to say it was an awesome day! It was good to ride w/some great people and end the season on a high note.

We have had a wonderful sickness going around our household lately (a nasty stomach bug along with a sinus/uri issue). It all started with my brother Kyle (who I will blame haha), moved to my step-father and then on to Meaghn and now on to me. Thankfully I am feeling better, just needed to get it out of our system I guess. This lovely bipolar Michigan weather is NOT helping our cause at all either lol, I am beyond ready for spring/summer.

I'm sure most everyone has heard about the Sepreme Court cases here in the US last week, I know they will probably not come to any conclusion until June or so but my fingers are crossed that people one day will see there is no difference between my relationship and yours. We are all human. There have been plenty of comments I wish I would not of read, but could not help myself. It amazes me how hateful and rude some people can be. I do not judge you for your views on things, so do not judge me for mine. We are all equal.

In other great news, NBC Today show host Jenna Wolfe announced that her and her partner of 3 years, Stephanie Gosk are expecting a baby girl in August! How awesome, not only to come out to the world but also that they are expecting! It is always great to hear about other LGBT couples coming out, especially people we see on a daily basis. Here is a link to Jenna's blog below:

We hope all is well w/everyone...let us know if ya'll have any questions or what to know anything about us! :-)

   

Love Is In The Air

Happy early Valentine's Day everyone! So Meag & I are horrible about updating this but I promise we will get better!! We have had a busy few weeks lately with Meag working full time & going to school, snowboarding and working full time myself. We have heard back from our realtor in regards to our house...bad & good news. We are still waiting on the sellers bank so at this time we have a 50/50 shot...please keep the good vibes coming!  Michigan has had some awesome winter weather lately...a fresh 12-14 inches fell the other day so needless to say snowboarding has been on point. Meag has had some HUGE progression lately & has even started hitting a few of the smaller boxes/rails. I am so extremely proud of her! Another round of good news, we are taking vacation in late May through early June to South Carolina to visit meag's family & friends. I could not be happier...I seriously love it there, the weather is awesome, her family & friends have amazing southern hospitality plus we get to eat some good southern food!  Valentine's Day is right around the corner, what does everyone have planned? Now don't get me wrong I do love what the holiday is about but to me personally, why must we have 1 day for this? You should show the person you love every day just how much you love them. Valentine's day has turned into a major marketing holiday...cards, chocolate, flowers etc... Meag has class Thursday night so we will be having a lunch date along with the adorable little boy she nanny's for, and I could not be any happier! We hope everyone has a great Valentine's Day & don't forget to always show your significant other what they mean to you!

Quick Update..

Hi Y'all!! It's Meaghn here and just wanted to do a quick update of what we've been up too lately. I'm finally back in Michigan from going away for the Holidays. Sad :( I know. But hopefully this will be the last time I'll have to spend Christmas apart from love. I had a great time enjoying my family, being in the south, and the warm weather wasn't so bad either! However, I am glad to be back in this semi-wintery weather! On New Years Eve, S and I went snowboarding. This was the first time that I had actually gone down a REAL slope, (rather than the beginners slope), which was a huge accomplishment! I'm getting better every time and can't wait to go again! Our NYE night consisted of a whole lot of nothing! We stayed in the warm house with S's family and relaxed after an exhausting day.

After a while of snowboarding.. my legs were done for. On another note, S and I are still in the process of buying a house. With that, comes a lot of home decor. We are slowly but surely getting things, one room at a time! Recently, we bought all of our bathroom decorations, and let me tell YOU.. two girls decorating a house gets quite...COMPLICATED. Although we did finally decide on our bathroom colors/decorations/etc. After we purchased our bathroom stuff, we ended up going into a furniture store on a hunt for a bed frame. (yes, we are currently sleeping with the mattress on the floor!) Not expecting to come out with really anything, we ended up getting sucked into a super cute bedroom suite. This included the bed frame, footboard, headboard, dresser, chest w/mirror, and night stand...for a VERY good price. We were super excited and surprised that we could walk in a store and walk out with everything we needed to complete our room (the big stuff at least). SWEET! Once we actually GET our house, there will definitely be pictures to show...but for the meantime, use your imagination ;)
On Monday I started school again.. it feels good to be back in college and finishing all that I've started. However, I will miss being with S at night :( Within the next few weeks, we hope to here something about our house. Keep all of your positive vibes coming, please & thank you!
Hope everyone is having an awesome week!
