Happy Birthday Tom!!

Well today my husband turns 28...i can hardly believe it...but anyways, today we took a nice drive to Madison, WI and went to the Woodcraft store...its a woodworking store...since that was probably so hard to figure out from the name lol...anyways, Tom got some parts for his dust collection system for his tools. Today there was some even going on at the store, so we got to enter a raffle thing, guess how many candy corn were in a jar, spin a saw blade for a percent off, play plinko for another percent off, and then shoot balloons with an air nailer, for ANOTHER percent off, and we both got to play and our total was 25% off, so that was a fun surprise! Then we got to go to a huge scrapbooking store that was near there, that I have heard so much about, but had never been to. Its called Archivers...and wowza, was it cool! lol here is what I bought...


first in the picture is a clear alphabet set, got it for 75% off, only paid $2.98! then dog stickers and dog paper for a project I am doing, some jumbo flowers for cards, glossy accents, which is just a diminsional glue thing, i don't know how to explain it, but then greenish brownish chipboard letters, yellow/tan chipboard letters, and pink chipboard letters, and then lastly is a scalloped circle punch...so excited to get to start using this stuff!! anyways... then we came home, stopped by Tom's parents house and I got to play w/Boogie and Miguel for awhile, which was so much fun...I miss them so much! anyways, we came home I made Tom's favorite dinner, hamburger strogenoff, and his other favorite:

APPLE PIE! and yes, i made it homemade, well except the crust, but still...its not from a box. Anyways, Tom always prefers apple pie over cake, so this is what he gets :) now we are going to watch a movie and just relax...

Anyways, I just have to let you all know how fantastic my husband is...God really knew what He was doing when He brought us together...there is absolutely no one in this world a more perfect fit for me, than him! Tom is such an amazing man, wonderful person, and just the greatest husband! He works hard, and never complains, he loves me more than I could have ever imagined, and on top of all of it, he is so easy going, and has patience I desire! So many things I strive to be! He is always there to provide the laughter, as well as there to hold me, pray with me, and wipe my tears in the hard times...I have been truely blessed, and I thank God daily for the privledge to be married to such an amazing man! I could go on and on, but I need to go watch a movie with my sweetie!  

Well I hope you all enjoy the rest of your weekend!!
