Paint

Sometimes I am a curse to myself. A couple weeks ago I decided that I'd really like to repaint our piano room..... then I decided I'd like to repaint the living room.... then why not do the entire main level? I was super excited about this project and planned to do it in sections so it wouldn't be too overwhelming. I told Shaun about my plans and he offered to check out prices for hiring someone to do the painting for us. Super sweet! Long story short, we hired someone, he was SUPER unreliable, he taped and put on one coat of paint on some of the trim, then we had to let him go. Now the whole house is a disaster, with tape and paper everywhere, the furniture pulled away from the walls and all the kitchen appliances put away. So my last week has been spent painting after the kids are in bed like a mad woman trying to get this house back in order. Poor Shaun finally volunteered to pitch in even though this is my mess and is helping to make it go a lot faster (plus we get to listen to our book while he helps!) Anyway, we're shooting for getting it done before our anniversary on Wed and Isaak's birthday on Thurs. Wish us luck!

Shaun's Birthday!

Shaun turned 32 this last week! He had a great day, woke up to cherry turnovers for breakfast and got to hit the Jazz game after work. Happy Birthday babe!!

4th annual 25th Birthday!

Yesterday was my Birthday! Shaun got up early and made my favorite breakfast before he left for work. Throughout the day I was flooded with texts and phone calls from friends and family wishing me a Happy Birthday. In the evening I dropped the kids off at my good friend Kirsten's house so I could go to Famous Dave's with my honey. Seriously, that is THE best restaurant ever! Then it was back to our home for cake and then I snuggled up to watch a movie with Shaun. Another year older, and hopefully wiser. 28 was a busy and crazy year that I learned a lot from. Here's to my last year in the twenties!
