Lately....

Sorry i'm not as good about keeping up with this as I use to be!!! My bad! But lately, Kevin and I have just been busy with life! Work has been picking up quite a bit since this new $8k tax credit for new homebuyers!! So thats good for business! I love help people find houses...its great! Kevin's been busy with his new job...it keeps him SUPER busy at work...but he loves every minute of it! He's getting to work with wireless products alll day...its like a kid in a candy shop for him!

Kevin's also starting to be very busy at home working on an iphone application!! So he bought a book and has been study to make his idea even better and hopefully he'll launch it soon and it'll be out for all you iphone users to buy!!! So when Kevin's not at work he's working on creating the next hit for the iphone!! :)

We are still working away at planning the wedding...thankfully we've gotten most of the big stuff done with. We're just working on the details and the smaller things. We also booked out honeymoon FINALLY!!! So i'm super excited about that! We ended up deciding to go to Jamaica at the Sandals Negril. We got an awesome room that is like a cottage and we have our own courtyard with a private pool and jacuzzi! We even have butler service!! We're pumped!! Especially because it is ALL INCLUSIVE!! YAY! So we are reallllly looking forward to all of that after the wedding!

Anyways busy week this week for both us...and i have my sister's shower I'm throwing this weekend at Kevin's house!!! The first shower to kick off the season full of showers for both Ashley and I!!

1 YEAR!!!!!!!!!!

Kevin and I have been together for 1 YEAR NOW!!! On one side I feel like we've been together forever, but on the other I feel like this past year has flown by!!! It has definitely been the best year of my life so far!!!

Bachelor

So every Monday night my roommate, Sarah, and I have "DRAMA NIGHT!!" Every Monday we have the Bachelor, Gossip Girl, and The City on TV. So our shows are fulllll of DRAMA!! :) We really enjoy our drama nights each week. But this week we were mad by the end of it. We have sooo much enjoyed the bachelor this season. Jason was awesome and we REALLY like Melissa and Jillian from the beginning and were rooting for them. So needless to say we were estatic when Jason picked Melissa!! Well until about 5 minutes later when we realized he dumped Melissa and got back with Molly whom he had dumped for Melissa! DRAMA i know! :) So Sarah and I have totally lost respect for this guy. I understand if he know realizes Melissa's not meant for him. But one I dont think he ever really gave it a chance and focused on just her and not Molly. But we were just PO'd that he would dump Melissa on National Television and then 5 minutes later be making out on the couch with Molly!!! I MEAN SERIOUSLY! How rude! Anywho...but now we are excited because at least JILLIAN is going to be the next Bachelorette!!! WHOOHOO! Yay for more DRAMA NIGHTS! :)

Valentine's Day and more....

Things have been pretty busy lately!!

....Valentine's Day was Saturday and Kevin and I really enjoyed our first one together! Earlier in the day we went to Addison's 1st Birthday!! It was super fun and I can't believe she is already a year old!!! Later that night, Kevin and I went to dinner together and had a wonderful time.

....Kevin got a new job a few weeks ago....YAY! well I guess kind of a promotion at National Instruments. He is now working with wireless stuff and he is really enjoying it...but it does keep him busy!!

....Wedding planning is still underway!! We have knocked out the majority of the big stuff...now down to the little stuff. But i'm feeling alot better now that we have gotten alot of stuff out of the way. We got our save the dates in last week, so those should be going out sometime this week....be on the look out!!

I hope everyone is doing well, as we are!!

Wedding Planning is Under Way.....

Well things have been busy with wedding planning ALREADY! We got our venues, my wedding dress, a photographer, and a few other things. Kevin and I have a few cake appointments this week, which I know he's excited about!

We also finished our wedding website- www.kevinandalicean.com ! Go and check it out!!

The New Year, thus far....

So i'm behind as Kevin reminded me yesterday on posting....NYE came and went. We had a lot of fun! Kevin and I went out with some friends to dinner downtown to Iron Cactus. 2008 was probably the best year for me, so I'm sad to see it go...but 2009 should be even better...i'm getting MARRIED!:)

Last weekend was a busy one...my parents came into town last friday and we went a bought my wedding dress :) !! YAY!! I'm way excited about that...then that night kevin and I went to the UT basketball game with my parents and had a great time! Saturday morning we got up bright and early and went and check out a reception site. It went really well, so I am thinking it's the one!! It is going to be good to knock out alot of these big things soon to get a load off of me!

Kevin has also decided to take up golf again. He says it is so he can play with my dad, since he doesn't have any sons. Kevin says he's doing it for me and my dad, but he's doing it for himself, which is good! He even went out and bought some clubs last weekend and played for the first time. He decided he needed to buy some clubs so he's committed to the game. It seems as though he's pretty obsessed with the game right now though....he's always sending me things he thinks he needs to get to help his game...lol!

And last night the Longhorns played in the Fiesta Bowl. We should be in the National Championship Game, but thats another story. The horns about gave me a heart attack...but they pulled it off at the end and came out victorious!! HOOK 'EM HORNS!!!
