Valentine's gift

 For Valentine's Day my hubby let me pick out my gift!!!! I picked out an off white ruffled comforter. I LOVE it!!!!!! It is so comfy and luxurious at the same time!!! I was just worried that we wouldn't be able to keep it white!!!! I have a big dog that likes to jump up on the bed and we drink our tea here in the morning.We LIVE in our room. That leads to another issue trying to keep this room tidy!!!!! We both have a ton of books and I have a million magazines,it is an ongoing struggle .For now I am happy and loving the room!!!!!

Julian's Birthday

We finally had Julian's birthday party this weekend!!!!! He turned 9 on Jan.16th and we celebrated with just the family that day.We were finally able to have the party and have perfect weather as well.No snow blizzards!!!!! Here are some photos of the actual birthday and then some from the party!!!!!! We are so grateful to have such a healthy happy boy who is growing up!!!!! He will always be my baby though!!!!!! LOL!!!!

White out!!!!!!

We were snowed in for the past 48 hours!!!!! We had about 4 to5 feet of snow outside our house. Our street was finally plowed today and people driving by were taking photos of the school across the street from our house.It was weird to see how high the snow piled. We all took turns shoveling but couldn't leave our driveway because of how bad our street was. A few cars decided to turn down our street and basically were stuck for hours!!!!! It was fun to be house bound for a few days ,we had food and enough wood to keep our home warm.We were also lucky to have electricity. My daughter who lives about five minutes away didn't have electricity for about 17 hours. I am glad we are getting back to normal. Here are some photos.
