Feb 8-14

Monday, February 8 - I finished my love sign and banner. I have so very few Valentine's decorations, I was glad to get this done!

 

Tuesday, February 9 - I have been wanting to replace our towel rack in the bathroom with hooks but I didn't really know I'd be doing it today! I took the towel rack down just to inspect it and ended up just drilling the holes to put up the hooks. I like them! Home improvements all around!

 

Wednesday, February 10 - I wanted to make a note of the low gas prices right now. I can't even remember paying less than $2 per gallon...like ever! I paid $1.56 today and it only took $31.20 to fill my tank! Unheard of! I do remember a couple of years ago when it cost me over $70 to fill the tank so this is just a great relief!

 

Thursday, February 11 - Crunch time! I told Simon I wanted the front room project done by February 12 before Christmas. Here we are on February 11 putting on coats of paint until 2:00 in the morning. It is really coming along though and I can't say too much. He's been working non-stop on it trying to get it done for me. The only thing left to do is the baseboards. He'll get that done in the next week or so and we'll be done with the construction zone. 

 

Friday, February 12 - We hosted a Valentine's party for a few of the couples in our ward. It was so fun! We had dinner then played the Newlywed Game. I can't speak for everyone else but I had an absolute blast! Simon had a lot of fun too! I know I've said it before but I love my ward and the friends we've made here.

 

Saturday, February 13 - Happy Birthday Sweet Brielle! Brielle turned 3 and had a super fun princess birthday party with Halle. Queen Elsa came all the way from Arendelle to celebrate their birthdays with them. It was really so much fun! 

Sunday, February 14 - Happy Valentine's Day! Jenni & BJ had a birthday party at their house to celebrate Halle and Brielle's birthdays. The princess theme continued from yesterday's party! It was fun being together and watching these sweet girls get all excited over their new toys and clothes. While we were sitting there, the doorbell rang. It was daddy's traditional V-Day drop off. He gave Jenni, Mom, and I rings from Mexico. They are gorgeous! I LOVE mine!!
