Thanksgiving and another house update!

     Just a few updates:

     We picked carpet! We picked some non-carpet wood-type flooring! We bought a washer and dryer! Things are finally moving along. The washer and dryer will be delivered the Monday after Thanksgiving and then the floors are going to be done the weekend after that. That means we will probably move in right around the first week of December. We'll take pictures of all of these things as soon as we have them. 

     We will be in Levelland, TX for Thanksgiving so hopefully we'll see a lot of you soon.

     We're going to send out our Save-the-Dates with our holiday cards soon and we'll update the wedding website too.

This picture was taken last year at the Notre Dame v Air Force game,
right before we got engaged.

House update

We still haven't moved into the house yet. We're currently trying to decide on what flooring we want, and after that we have to actually have it installed. Do you know how many options there are for flooring? That stuff is just crazy. 

It'll probably be a few more weeks before we move in. We'll keep you all updated as it progresses, but in the meanwhile here are a few random pictures of Suthee: 

How cute is the bow tie?

New House Pictures

Here are some pictures of the house. They are all screen shots that I took from the listing company's website. I'll post more of the ones we have taken later.

Welcome!

Welcome!

       Some of you see a lot of our updates on Facebook, but a lot of you aren't on Facebook, so we thought it would be nice to have a place where everyone could see what's going on in our lives. We have to admit we got this idea from Tom & Susan's blog No Rest for the Wiris! Since we just bought a house and we're getting married this summer we thought it would be a good time to start our own. 

       We hope you like this name (we're pretty amused by it). Beans and rice are the primary foods that we grew up with (being Mexican and Asian) and O' is a throwback to both Hope's Irish heritage and Suthee's Irish loyalties (Notre Dame).

Enjoy!

Suthee & Hope
