Valentine's Day

With Jedd loosing his job in January, we really should be saving our money. But we decided to splurge and go on a date for Valentine's Day. (at least I have a pay check coming in!!) We have all of a sudden made it a tradition to go to Olive Garden for Valentine's so that's exactly where we went. Of course we went during the middle of the day to miss the crowds. We then headed to see When in Rome. (note: DUMBEST MOVIE! I would not recommend it to ANYONE!) And we went to the matinee for two reasons, 1. it is cheaper and 2. again missing the crowds. We decided that we weren't going to get each other anything because our present was our date out, but Jedd surprised me with a sweater. I watch the Bachelor (pathetic I know!) and saw this sweater on one of the girls and fell in love with it so Jedd bought it for me. What a great hubby!!

I know, cheesiest picture ever, but if you can't tell it is a sweater that goes longer in the front and this royal blue is gorgeous! Happy Valentine's Day! (sorry I'm so late)

A Whole New Bedroom

When Jedd and I got married, Jedd brought his bed, headboard and all of his dressers that he used (my bed was a twin so thank goodness he had a queen!). Besides the mattress, everything were his parents, they actually got it for their wedding. I was so excited to have the furniture, but not particularly excited about the 70's look it had. So I asked Jedd's parents if they were ok if I just painted them to match my black and red themed room. They said of course so this has been my plan for the past year. When we moved out of our apartment in July I thought what a perfect time to paint. They sat in our storage shed instead. Then when we moved into our house in October, I thought ok this is the perfect time. They sat in our garage for 4 months. I was honestly planning on doing them when it got to be better weather and I could paint them in our garage, but Jedd decided he would paint them (with a TON of help from his mom!). Last week Jedd went and got the paint, and already had a full coat of paint on all of our furniture before I even got home from work on Thursday. His mother came to help us finish up the painting on Satuready and when we had family over on Sunday they helped us move it upstairs. (the dresser weighs 1000 pounds!) Here are some pictures of our bedroom. Oh ya, we also hung my mirror above our bed. We are still waiting for shelves to finish before we officially finish our one wall, but other than that, the bedroom is FINALLY done! I absolutely love it. What do you think??

Blah Blah Blah

No fun things going on in our lives and nothing to report. Just the same old thing. Get up, go to work (school), come home, cook dinner, go to bed. Repeat, repeat, repeat. I don't particularly care for the first few months of the year. Even though I really enjoy Valentine's Day, I just feel so BLAH until my birthday month gets here.....March!! So all of you who are reading this, enjoy the BLAH months of the year!
