Merry Christmas

I was watching Good Morning America the other morning while getting ready for work and they viewed the clip below and I got a little teary eyed. When you see things like this it just makes you appreciate the holidays and all that you have been blessed with. Have a safe a happy Christmas my friends!! (enjoy the clip...I think they have a little blip while it is loading)

16 Days till the first Hill

Well friends I am not quite sure how to feel about this years birthday. Usually I am super excited and reminding everyone about my birthday coming up and getting them excited too(I know I am dork) But turning 30 is something else...I know I don't look 30, so that is positive:) Although, I will always be carded when I go out with my sister(who is 22) and they wont even look at her to see if she needs to be carded!! but there is just so many other things that fall in the 30 category that I am not too sure about....I am deffinately not 21 anymore, staying out till wee hours of the night and being able to get up the next morning and go...no way I need my sleep now, and the list could go on. I am excited that I get to go away for the weekend:) and that my girlfriend and I are probably having the Biggest 30yr bash ever...

sorry for the random blog...I was just sitting at work thinking about turning 30 and thought I would share my thoughts:)

SNOW..a love/hate relationship

It is amazes me how much snow we have gotten this month! I love it and hate it at the same time. I love it, cause it is calming to look out your window and see the snow covered trees and yard, to be snuggled up in your favorite chair with a cup of coffee (or hot cocoa)...its great!! You also get to go out and enjoy sledding, making snowmen, and snowangels:) I hate it, cause only in Minnesota do the drivers have to learn to drive all over again. For real!! I am sure we all have our stories.

So we FINALLY are getting to put things up in the cabinets of the kitchen and get it organized!! We can breathe the finishing touches. The only things left to do is put down the flooring, and install the appliances and order counter tops. Then we are DONE!!! with the kitchen...I have heard you are never really "done" on house projects. ( I will have to post a few pictures later)
