I'm new at this, be gentle!

Hello!!

I decided to bite the bullet and start one of these!!  

I am excited to use this to keep everyone at home updated on the day to day happenings here in TN!  First update, NEW BLOG!!  haha

Actually, we've had a pretty big weekend.  Valentine's Day was very exciting for us.  Woke up to  a note on my bed that Michael left, saying he "had more to run out and pick up", but he was back as I was reading it and brought in the first of 3 parts to of my Valentine's Day, finished collage frames that we got for Christmas!!  It's not a big thing, but there are GREAT collage frames with pictures of my friends and family in our house now, which gives me motivation to keep going!  So as we walked out the bedroom to see where we wanted to put them, I saw part of part 2, our kitchen set up for the most romantic dinner!  It was all cleaned up with the table set for 2, table cloth and all, with our wedding china that we have never used, complete with candles and a rose. SO ROMANTIC!!!  So then we (I mostly) relaxed all day, watched all the lovey dovey movies on tv while Michael studied hard for his test on Monday before getting ready for dinner.  We decided to get all dressed up fancy, but not see each other til we were done...so i shaved and took my time getting ready, getting all dolled up for the "big reveal".  Michael then cooked me dinner, a 3 course dinner, by candlelight.  And did our "gift exchange".  I got a dock for my iPhone and I got Michael a book from Brook's Brothers about how to "Speak like a gentleman"  it's really funny and actually has some good advice.

So that was our FIRST Valentine's together!  Really, first EVER that we have been in the same place, together...it was great!  

And right now, it is Sunday, the hubby is home, "working" in bed next to me, I hope since he isn't studying that he is ready for this test tomorrow...I am really ready for my day off tomorrow for President's day, we're going to the UT Lady Vols basketball game, they are playing #4 Duke, I am going to be making my dad so SO jealous!!  

Ok, that was my first post!!  I will learn how to upload pictures soon!
