Home Sweet Home

I wish I could say that picture with our Christmas lights was from Christmas time, but we still have our lights up (granted we don't turn them on any more, it's just been to cold to take them down)...Any way, here are some pics of our home. We still have a long way to go, but we are getting it done one room at a time. It has 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms so there is plenty of room for visitors:)

What if We lived in the 1800's???

I was checking out Marcus's blog the other day and thought his old photo thing was pretty cool and decided to try it out on a few photos. What Marcus forgot to mention was that the site is in Japanese until you click to change it into English. I thought it was pretty cool and maybe you will too. Thanks Marcus!

Valentine's Day!!!

So...every year Russell and I switch off who plans Valentine's Day. This year was Russell's turn. It's always a surprise as to what we do...Russell had given me a few hints but didn't spill the beans. He told me that he had two things planned....one in the morning and one at night. He also told me that both of the things we were doing were things that I had told him I wanted to do. And lastly...that neither one of them was romantic. Ha...so as we were driving up the canyon I guessed it...we were going to take a little ride on the Heber Creeper....for those of you who don't know what that is, it's a 2 hour ride on a very old train. We had a blast drinking hot chocolate and playing games. Russell took some cool pictures...he is getting pretty good at using our new camera! Then later that night we went to a monster truck rally! It was a blast...i couldn't even handle how many white trash people were there...it was great!! I wished I had known about this date because you know I would have dressed up WT too!! All in all, Russell did a great job planning V day....he was right, it wasn't very romantic but it was a blast!! Now I gotta start thinking about next year.
