Welcome to the Main Event!!!!

This past Saturday night Dustin and I went out to eat with a group of friends for Angela's and Randi's Birthday. Angela is the wife of Eddie, who is Dustin's Lieutenant, and Randi is the wife of Jeremy, who is also a firefighter on Dustin's shift. We went to eat at Cantina Laredo and then we all went over to Main Event to go bowling. I haven't been to Main Event since high school and I hadn't been bowling in probably over a year. We had lots of fun. As much as I tried to beat Dustin, he beat me at every game. In fact he beat everyone. Here are a few pictures I took.....

We had a lot of fun and it made me want to go bowling more often. Did you hear that Kels??? We should go bowling soon!!!

Happiness........

I took these pictures the other day of Jax & Maribel and I thought they were too cute not to share. I think this is what happiness is.......well maybe to a dog anyways. They are just too cute!!!

Update on Life.....

Not a lot has been happening in the Wynn household. It has been a slow start to the new year. I personally think January is a boring month anyways and I am ready for February. The Super Bowl is the first weekend in February and the second weekend I am attending Crop for the Cure at the Corinth Elementary School. I have been meaning to start on my wedding scrapbook I just haven't gotten around to it. I am going with my good friend Stephanie for a full day of scrapbooking and craft making. It should be a lot of fun. Then there is Valentine's Day. I am not too big into this holiday but it is fun to recognize it and do something sweet for your loved one. Maybe I will make a cute Valentine for Dustin this year!

This weekend was fun and relaxing. On Saturday I went to Hobby Lobby (my favorite store) and I picked up a few things to finish decorating the kitchen with. I am having Bunco at my house next month and I am trying to finish up a few decorating ideas. Saturday night Dustin and I went to Studio Movie Grill in Addison with our good friend Matt and his fiance Miranda. We saw Gran Torino with Clint Eastwood. This was obviously Matt and Dustin's choice of movie. Surprisingly it was a great movie. It was funny and Miranda and I both cried at the end. It was totally not what I was expecting. Sunday we did the usual... went to church, then out to eat with my family and then came home and watched the football game.

I am already ready for next weekend and it isn't even Monday yet! Next Saturday we are going out to eat with Dustin's Lieutenant Eddie and his wife and Jeremy and his wife and then we are going to Main Event to play laser tag. I will try and remember my camera so I can post some fun pictures!

New Year's Resolutions.....

I usually don't make New Year's Resolutions but this year I did. I have gained a few extra pounds since I got married in August so it is time to loose them! I am starting Slim Fast...yesterday was my first day....and I suddenly remembered why I don't make resolutions....I never stick to them. I thought I was going to die of hunger pains yesterday. It doesn't help that your husband can sit down and eat anything he wants right in front of you while you are eating this tiny meal bar that is supposed to fill you up for 4 hours. Yea right!! I think after 30 minutes my stomach was growling. I am really going to try and stick to it for a little while. I don't need to loose a whole lot but I do have a bridesmaids dress that I need to fit in by May.

Speaking of weddings....this is going to be a busy year of weddings for Dustin and I. We have 2 weddings back to back in March. Our friends Jeremy & Serenda and Josh & Heather are getting married. I am in Angela's wedding in May and Dustin's best friend Matt is getting married towards the end of the year. I actually hope that this is a busy year. I had so much to look forward to in 2008 with the wedding and building our house.

Both of our resolutions this year is to save more money and go on vacation. Dustin already has a few shifts off in August and we are hoping to take a trip somewhere. We are looking into Cabo San Lucas, Jamaica, or keeping it simple and taking a road trip to California or Colorado. I really wish we could afford Hawaii but I am not getting my hopes up. It is so expensive.

I will have to blog and let you know how this Slim Fast thing goes. Right now it is not looking too good! Happy New Year from the Wynn Family!!!!

Holiday Fun!

Christmas is over. It came and went so fast. This was a special Christmas for me since it was Dustin and I's first Christmas as husband and wife. We didn't spend a whole lot on each other this year since we had a wedding and bought a house earlier this year. Dustin surprised me with a Fossil purse! It is red....my favorite color! He picked it out all by himself! I was proud of him. He also got me the 6th season of 90210. For those that don't know me well.....I am a 90210 freak! I absolutely love that show!

I got Dustin a few shirts, a subscription to Muscle & Fitness and a jack. He picked it out of the Sears add one day so I got it for him. Don't know if he will ever use it. It was so nice to have a long weekend off of work. On Saturday we went and saw Marley & Me. It is such a great movie! It is such a tear jerker though. I read the book a few years ago and when I heard the movie was coming out I could not wait to go see it. Dustin and I have been through our fair share of messes created by our oldest Boxer Jax. I will never forget the time we came back to my apartment after going out to dinner to my entire couch shredded all over my apartment. It was a disaster. I can't even remember all the things he has torn up over the first year and a half of his life. Thank goodness he has calmed down! Anyways, if you get the chance to go see Marley & Me, go see it! Jennifer Anniston & Owen Wilson are great in this movie!

Merry Christmas!

I just wanted to wish everyone a Merry Christmas! I am so excited to spend my first Christmas with Dustin as husband and wife. We don't have any really big plans since both of our families live in the metroplex. I have to work half a day on Christmas Eve and then we are going to my parent's house to do our gift exchange with my aunt, uncle and cousins. Then we are off to Mansfield to do Christmas with Dustin's side of the family.

Christmas morning Dustin and I are going to go over to my parent's house to open presents with them and eat breakfast. We will also eat Christmas lunch with them. This year my mom decided not to do the traditional meal of turkey & dressing. She is going to cook a brisket. I am really curious to see what Dustin got me this year because his wrapping job sure is interesting! I posted our family Christmas picture below. It was tough getting the dogs to sit still and surprisingly the very first picture we took was the best one out of all of them. Merry Christmas!!!

Rookie of the Year!

A couple of weeks ago the Colleyville Fire Department had their annual awards banquet. It was a lot of fun. We ate mexican food and then Rusty Greer (former outfielder for the Rangers) spoke. It was really interesting to hear his stories about playing pro baseball. After he was finished speaking they handed out the awards.

Dusitn has been with the department for a little over a year. He was up for Rookie of the year. There were 2 other guys that were also up for this award. Dustin won the award and I was so proud of him. I had to brag on him! I posted a few pictures of his award. It is a really nice award and it fits perfect in our office along with all the other fireman stuff.
