Flashback to just the cutest pups!

In 2013 we were giving the chance to rehabilitate and foster these 2 gorgeous boys, Freddie and Vern. They were found very young, at approximately 3 months old.. They were not doing well covered with a dog skin condition called Mange. As well as a belly full of parasitic worms. Freddie also fought off pneumonia. Lets just say it was a long 4 months for us.. but it was so worth it to see these 2 grow and now they have been adopted together into a loving family.

Just wanted to share a few pictures of these beauties!

BEFORE and AFTER!
(Left is Vern, Right is Freddie, in both pictures)
(Top is the day we found them, Bottom is the day the were adopted from my home)
 
These boys were my heart and soul for such a long time, and we miss them dearly. But then you get an update from the forever family and they are so in love, it makes fostering all worth it..
So just for fun here are some more pictures from their time with us!
 
 
Yup they hated me for the whole Christmas shoot! (Yes, at one point there was a tiny sled!)



 
 
Just loving how adorable they are! Have you ever fostered? Or dealt with pups in general! Let me know!

And it begins...

Hey! So last I wrote I was talking about leaving my job and a basement reno.. Well since then I have in fact quit my job, but we put on offer in on our dream house! It came back on the market and we got super excited.. And then we lost it, you know, because of our wonderful luck, (Yes, that is sarcasm at its finest.. We will see you again perfect house.. When you come back on the market!) So here I am again back to the basement reno, which I am actually really excited about!

So I left my job and am about to embark on the crazy adventure that is trying to make it all alone! I'm terrified so excited! So wish me luck!

Anyhow.. Got lots done in a house this weekend.. FINALLY started to finish the master bedroom this weekend, (its the only room in the house that isn't painted.. Minus that terribly high ceiling in the stairway, that I am much to much a chicken to get up there and paint.) I finally convinced hubbie that he doesn't need a dresser.. I truly hate them, so I built a bunch a cubbies put together for him to place his clothes. He seems to like it so far, win for me!

Thinking I might move a chair in the corner of the living room, up into the bedroom now, very excited to get some décor in here. Will look amazing!

We also started putting up the trim on the cupboards this weekend. Finished the kitchen about 4 months ago, but still have not had the effort to put up the crown moulding trim! So close I can feel it!

Also had a couple come and look to adopt our current foster pup Jonah, love that guy! He is just the sweetest, but they were not. So safe to say, Jonah is going to be staying for just a little while.. I think our girl Zoey is happy about this though. They sure do love each other!

Well hopefully all this goes well in the next upcoming weeks. I will do a blog soon about how the crown moulding goes! I think its just going to change the whole look of the kitchen. :) Thanks for reading! Hopes ya'll have a great day!

Starting this new life!

So this is it.. I'm kind of taking a large leap into life in these next few weeks. I have been a nurse now for nearly 3 years and have decided to take my home business to the next level..

But before we get there, a little about myself. I am a 24. Love knitting, and nursing. I have a crazy sweet tooth, and an insane amount of bad luck that follows our lives around. I am married to the most amazing man. And our home is used as a foster for near by Pitbull pooches. Love my  sweet pibble girl Zoey!
 
And now back to current life.. I am kind of an open book and recently have decided to leave my sweet job nursing, and starting up my own business. Its a home cleaning and maid service business, and I really have high hopes that its going to be successful! Well, it better because bills are going to continue coming..
 
The biggest factor in me wanted to start up my business would have to be me wanting to be able to stay home full time with (future.. hopefully soon to be) children.
 
So excited to be starting this new blog as well! Have been wanting to for a long while now and here it is, up and moving now! Cant wait to hear from new people and get lots of great tips on blogging and this new world.
 
So tomorrow is the big day that I leave my job for my future.. I really am so excited to be moving on in this next phase in our lives, and hopefully this will be a new beginning..
 
Thanks a bunch for reading!
