Update

We are alive...lol we had a great valentines day. Tom got me some flowers, a nice card and surprised me with a present. It was a bigger xyron sticker maker! :) I have the small little X one but this is the 5 inch one...any scrapbookers or card makers know what I'm talking about, and I made homemade breakfast, we went to a movie of Tom's choice, and he got his beloved popcorn as well lol and then I made meatloaf, homemade mashed potatoes and veggies for dinner and we ate by candlelight and had some ice cream cupcakes from Coldstone. Yum! It was a great day and weekend! 

Tom is still working on building the new basement stairs, hopefully soon, they will be done, but its a much bigger project than expected, well than I expected, not sure about Tom but anyways, he is doing a great job, and it will be so great to have a finished stairway instead of the previous state it was in. I don't think I ever explained the state of our old basement stairs...well lets say they were old, and weak, and one day I heard "CRASH!" and I yelled, "ARE YOU OK?!!" and Tom says, oh yeah, I just fell through a stair....and then from then on out, when going down the stairs, you either had to step on the very edge or skip the step, so you didn't fall through as well lol I guess he did put a new board over it eventually, but still, it was BAD! And now we will also have finished, painted walls, no more yucky, uneven, cobwebby limestone foundation...YAY! Can't wait till one day we get to finish the entire basement, that will be REALLY cool! but for now, the stairs is huge progress!

Well seems like there were other things to blog about, but I guess not for now...I've been THINKING about having a blog giveaway, seems like something fun...any ideas? I see all sorts of cute things people give away...and I've been racking my brain for something cool, and fun to get you all involved...and pull the quiet ones from the darkness...so please feel free to leave some ideas... :) I'll be back later this week. Have a great week!!
