Mercedes of course:)

Chet and Michelle Stevens took some GREAT pictures of our little Mercedes. I can't wait to see the rest of them! They did a wonderful job.

Five Year Anniversary

May 23rd, 2008 was our five year anniversary! This year Mike and I didn't do much for our anniversary. We exchanged gifts and then went to dinner. Baby in tow;) I bought him a beautiful guitar that I had to drag around the mall. Imagine a big nerd pushing around a stroller for a little tiny baby with shopping bags hanging all over it and the woman with a guitar strapped to her back. Are you laughing yet? Well that was me! Oh well. It was worth it. Mike has been wanting to learn the guitar for a long time now. I got a beautiful diamond ring. I love it. And he also sent me a dozen long stemmed red roses. My favorite! I cried. He never sends me flowers. He always delivers them himself! I have the best husband ever! :) I think the best gift this year for both of us though was Mercedes. I'll post pictures later!

Cooking!

I am a bit surprised to find that I like to cook. I told a friend that I sort of always knew I could cook because I'm surrounded and know a lot of great cooks (My mom, Mike's mom, Patty, Angie, Melanie and so on!). So the last couple of weeks I have been experimenting. I have made green enchiladas, chicken cordon bleu, shrimp salad (not from the box), mexican rice and my favorite, chocolate chip cookies from scratch! Yes that's right, I said from scratch (I'm so good at the break and bake it is hard to imagine me with actual ingredients). Mike thinks something is wrong with me. LOL! So do I for that matter. I was always the one who would rather clean up the kitchen then cook dinner. So! If anyone wants a recipe let me know. And if I need one I'm going to email my favorite cooks! BEWARE! :) BTW Mel, I'm going to marinate some pork chops for dinner tomorrow using your recipe! :) Thanks!

Mike's new truck

Hi everyone! This is the newest member of our family. It is a 2008 chevy silverado. I like it. It is fun to drive and we love it!

Little Miss Mercedes

I honestly have not updated this blog because I could not figure out what pictures to put on here! And I had so many pictures on my camera it took like half an hour to load. Anyways, not much is going on with the Fausetts. Mike gets to work and Mercedes and I get to clean house, do laundry, run errands and make dinner. We also get to visit family and we have time to shop too;).
I'll try to be better about keeping up the blog. I didn't intend for it to go this long. Well, not much else to report. Go JAZZ!!
