President's Day Weekend

We got a lot done this weekend, despite the bad weather and Ginny feeling crummy all weekend long.

*We started the repainting job of our office. All we got done was the creamy white base coat, but next we will be doing the horizontal stripes in a really nice gray color. (Sorry Jerry, no more paint splotches!)

*The garden is almost finished! We inserted the rest of the tubing so that we can install a drip irrigation system, and then we put down some stepping stones and river rock all around the garden beds. I can't wait for spring!

*Ginny got her first tooth!

*The word is out in the Hermiston Stake that I sing. Guess who has now been asked to sing 4 different solos over the next two months?

*Ginny has taken a course from Professor Max in "How to be a menace". Thankfully, she isn't walking yet, or I'm sure it would be a whole lot worse.

*Back-tracking, we had a wonderful family Valentines Day. Scott got me flowers and chocolate, and I got him McDonald's certificates. We ate a nice dinner of heart-shaped pizza, chocolate covered strawberries, red jello, and red juice. It was delicious!

*We also, finally, had gutters installed on our house. Now our poor friends won't get drenched when they try to come up to our front door when it is raining.

I'm always sad when a 3-day weekend is over. Back to the daily grind!

I'm so jealous! I can't wait to have my own house again (you remember we're renting, right?) so that I can do fun upgrades like you. Even gutters seem fun at this point!
