Tried Color Street over fake nails. Not 100% perfect, but not bad. I had to adjust the sizes of the strips as the ones I normally use were too small for my fingers with the fake nails on. But this is Russian Around for Thanksgiving and Ed's and my 10 year anniversary. <3 . . . #colorstreet #colorstreetnails #nailsofinstagram #colorstreetnailstrips #nailfie #nailselfie #nailstrips #russianaround #nails #prettynails #thanksgivingnails #anniversarynails #10yearstogether #10years #10yearsdating (at Trucksville, Pennsylvania) https://www.instagram.com/p/CWtm7rtJpvW/?utm_medium=tumblr

New phone, who dis? . . So excited right now!! My new phone came in and I was free to run down and sign for it! I was so worried I wouldn't be able to and they'd have to try again after Thanksgiving. My current phone is acting up a lot so this was very needed ASAP LOL. Now to spend the rest of my break time setting it up LOL . . #newphonewhodis #newphone #googlepixel #googlepixel6 #google #pixel6 #newphoneday #xfinitymobile #soexcited #flagshipphone (at Trucksville, Pennsylvania) https://www.instagram.com/p/CWq728TpjtM/?utm_medium=tumblr

Did my nails finally and absolutely love this combo! Coral Bay, then some Bronze Nail Tape I was given to add something different to the usual plaid, then Plaid About You over top to seal it all in. . It was not easy getting the tape in the right places so it'd line up with Plaid, but if you put the tape on top, you need to add Clear As Day on to keep it in place and from pulling up. I almost made that mistake on my one pinky nail. . . . #colorstreet #nailfie #nailselfie #nailsofinstagram #colorstreetnails #colorstreetnailstrips #coralbay #plaidaboutyou #nailtape #bronze #ombrenails #gradientnails #plaidnails #plaidgradient #ombre #plaid #gradient #sparklynails #foxmug #foxes #fallnails (at Trucksville, Pennsylvania) https://www.instagram.com/p/CV2w7uILo-8/?utm_medium=tumblr

So the other day Ed was able to mow the lawn using a neighbors riding lawn mower as ours needs new tires. This lawnmower didn't have a clipping collecting bag thing on it so Ed tried getting it all as together as he could while mowing. I already wanted to rake the leaves at some point so we figured I would rake both the leaves and the grass clippings... our house is on a half acre and so far this is what I've gotten done. Pretty much a line from the driveway to the road we live beside and then down to the road we live on. This took close to an hour between yesterday and today 😥 . . . #newhousesofinstagram #newhouse #fallyardwork #fall #rakingleaves #rakinggrass #raking #lotsofwork #halfanacre #somuchwork #iusedtoloveraking #cantwaittobedone #almostthere #progress #leafpile #leafpiles #lawncare #yardcare #yardwork #imexhausted (at Trucksville, Pennsylvania) https://www.instagram.com/p/CV0oY4bJx-C/?utm_medium=tumblr

So, I found this old plush of mine and somehow in storage it got something on it, so I pulled it out to clean. Afterwards I just tossed it on the couch. This morning I keep finding this Little Nugget curled up with him. He has sniffed the "dog's" butt and determined that unlike the last dog he came across, this one isn't real LOL Maybe one day we can replace this plush with the real thing XP . . . #damontestarossaalfred #catograms #catsofinstagram #cats #sleepylittlebean #sleepykitty #newbuddy #stuffeddog #fakedogrealcat #fakedog #buddies #littlebuddy #nugget #littlenugget #goldenboys #orangebabies #orangetuxedocat #orangebeans #creamsiclecat #orangestripes #orangecats #goldenretreiver #yellowlab #yellowlabmix #yellowlabgoldenretrievermix #goldador #plushdog #goldenretrievermix #goldenlab (at Trucksville, Pennsylvania) https://www.instagram.com/p/CVddgSdp3aE/?utm_medium=tumblr

Damon wanted out of the basement, but has never seen a cat-door before. Enzo figured it out no problem, but he loves jumping through things. As long as he knows the other side is safe. Damon needs a bit more encouraging. He forgets he's not as chonky as he once was. Tapping things let's them know its safe and sturdy, but its hard to convince him its something he can fit through. But, just like Scooby, Damon will do anything for a snack LOL . . . #damontestarossaalfred #catograms #catsofinstagram #cats #orangetuxedocat #orangebeans #creamsiclecat #orangestripes #orangecats #catdoors #whatsthis #notsochonky #youcandoit #willyoudoitforasnack #wouldyoudoitforascoobysnack #mynugget #babyboy #myboy #hedidit (at Trucksville, Pennsylvania) https://www.instagram.com/p/CVI-JwdJNGD/?utm_medium=tumblr

The boys finally have been allowed in the basement! There were some holes in the ceiling that the previous owners cats would climb up in, and it wasn't easy to get them out after, so we wanted those closed up before we had any problems. So today that was finished and the boys have been released! Enzo was shockingly super adventurous and wanted to explore it all. Damon was a scared baby for once and stayed on the steps till Enzo had been around most of the area. There's a cat-door the previous owners had installed still in the door, so we removed the tape from it so its open again. The boys have never seen a cat-door before so we weren't sure how they would take to it. Enzo was in and out like a pro no problem (as you can see from the blur that is his legs in the one pic) Damon came up later and wasn't sure. Video to come LOL. . . . #basement #basementaccess #basementcats #exploringthebasement #catsexploring #newroomwhodis #newareatoexplore #cats #enzomcclarenmojzuk #damontestarossaalfred #catograms #catsofinstagram #orangecats #orangetuxedocat #tuxedocats #orangetabby #creamsiclecat #myboys (at Trucksville, Pennsylvania) https://www.instagram.com/p/CVI9rNzpoxL/?utm_medium=tumblr

We had McDonald's lastnight, so tonight we have Smokey Apple Chicken! We altered the broccoli slightly cause we wanted parmesan on it so its lemon zested parmesan broccoli. We also altered the mashed potatoes and used milk and cheese instead of sour cream cause Ed isn't a fan of altering his mashed potatoes. But, sadly the chicken isn't all that tasty in our opinions :/ but, ya can't win em all LOL. We both have discovered though that we like Pecan Pie! . . . #hellofresh #hellofreshpics #hellofreshsnaps #hellofreshmeals #hellofreshbox #hellofreshrecipes #hellofreshrecipe #hellofreshus #hellofreshpic #smokeyapplechicken #applechicken #smokeychicken #brownsugarbourbon #lemonzestedparmesanbroccoli #parmesanbroccoli #lemonzestedbroccoli #mashedpotatoes #edsmashedpotatoesarethebest #pecanpie #pie (at Trucksville, Pennsylvania) https://www.instagram.com/p/CUbMiI1ro_2/?utm_medium=tumblr

Meals #6, 7, 8, & 9. Forgot to post them lol. Also forgot to take photos of meal 4 and 5 as we had company over. But here we have Creamy Pesto Grilling Cheese Ciabatta and Crispy Parmesan Chicken from Saturday, Chicken Sausage & Spinach Ricotta Ravioli from Sunday, and tonight's Stuffed-Meatball Rigatoni Bake! Not shown are Pecan Crusted Chicken and Creamy Ricotta Tomato Ravioli from Friday evening. All of these meals have been phenomenal!! Easy to make as they're pre-prepped, and not much time to cook them either! We are onto our second week now and I'm excited for week three to arrive on Thursday!

So a while back (few months ago) Ed and I got some Jones Soda at a local grocery store and this was under my cap. I saved it cause I was hoping someday it would be correct (we had just started working towards figuring out if we could buy or build a house). I just found it again today while unpacking a box. Ik fortunes and stuff like this are what you interpret them to be, but I feel this one was exactly correct. We had just been talking about our financial plans when I opened the soda, and now, I'm here unboxing in our very own house. So yeah, I'm still saving this LOL . . . #jonessoda #jonessodaco #fortunes #capfortunes #sodafortunes #weboughtahouse #fortunesthatcametrue #savingmoney #financialdecisions #smartfinancialdecisions #firsthomeprediction (at Trucksville, Pennsylvania) https://www.instagram.com/p/CUQFZW6Li2P/?utm_medium=tumblr

Made our second and third meals from our Hello Fresh box! (We wanted to have a huge dinner tonight so we made 2 meals). We made Beef Flautas Supreme and Southwest Style Zucchini Boats. Both are soooo good!!! And go so well together! I made the boats and Ed made the flautas. Somehow we didn't murder eachother in the kitchen working at the same time. . . . #hellofresh #hellofreshpics #hellofreshsnaps #hellofreshmeals #hellofreshbox #hellofreshrecipes #hellofreshrecipe #hellofreshus #hellofreshpic #beefflautassupreme #beeffloutas #flautas #flautassupreme #southweststylezucchiniboats #southweststyle #zucchiniboats #southwest (at Trucksville, Pennsylvania) https://www.instagram.com/p/CUL2s6Xse2R/?utm_medium=tumblr

Made our first Hello Fresh meal in forever! Spinach Gnocchi with Heirloom Tomatoes. Forgot to take pics after we made it, but it was really good lol. I'm still eating away at mine LOL. Ed thinks its better as a side dish cause he wants meat in his dinner, but he still ate it all and loved it! . . . #hellofresh #hellofreshpics #hellofreshsnaps #hellofreshmeals #hellofreshbox #hellofreshrecipes #hellofreshrecipe #hellofreshus #hellofreshpic #spinachgnocci #heirloomtomatoes #spinachgnocciwithheirloomtomatoes #spinachgnocciwithtomatoes #eatingoodintheneighborhood #eatinggood (at Trucksville, Pennsylvania) https://www.instagram.com/p/CUJFcVdpciD/?utm_medium=tumblr
