Chance's new truck!

It's that time in Chance's life for a big purchase!

He has been with the Rangers for a few months and has been doing great.

He saved a good size down payment for a truck and bought one today! I'm so proud of him for doing this without any help.

Here are a few pics of him and his new silver bullet (no...Chance is not aware I have named his truck)

We're buying a house!

It's official! Chance and I are going to be buying our first house together later this summer. We've met with our mortgage lender and realtor and we are really excited about working with both of them to find our first home :) We would prefer a fixer upper so we can put our own style on the home and because we both enjoy renovating. I'm so lucky Pinterest and Houzz are around because it's definitely helped...although Chance may disagree because his "honey-do-list" is just getting longer and longer by the day ;) so keep checking back in and follow us on our journey to home ownership! I will blog our entire search and things we've learned/realized along the way, as well as our renovations when we move in!

Valentine's Date!

For Valentine's dinner this year Chance thought it would be fun to take me out for steaks and two steppin'. He had never been to Southern Junction before but my dad told him all about it. We decided to do a group date and my parents, Aunt Carolyn and Uncle Mike joined us.

For dinner we picked our own filets out and the guys did all the cooking. I was little weary about having to cook my own dinner when we are trying to celebrate Valentine's, but this was seriously the coolest thing we have done. While the steaks were going, we made our baked potatoes and Texas toast.

After dinner we danced the night away and had such a good time!

My cousin showed up to celebrate his birthday so it was really good seeing him. Happy Birthday JD!

At midnight there was a balloon drop for the ladies. In the balloons were pieces of paper that had things written on them - swag, money, etc. 

I got $2 and a free bull ride...both of which I gave to my cousin for his birthday.
My mom got a beanie, keychain, some free drink vouchers and a few free rides on the bull. I really thought she was going to ride the bull for fun, but she didn't and she gave all of the drink coupons and free bull rides to my cousin for his birthday.

Overall, this night was the best Valentine's dinner/date I have ever had. Chance and I just have such a great time together. I'm the luckiest girl in the world to be able to call him mine :) Love you babe!
