the new furniture is here! it looks so nice! ahhhhh. i am so happy! thanks to corey and larry for helping matt get it in the house. thank you to my mom for cleaning the floor under the old couch before i got off work. thank you to tucker for not destroying it the first night. :) i promise to post pictures this weekend of the before and after. i also plan to get paint this weekend for the living room - i'm thinking a cranberry color. we also need to get some curtains for the living room and i'm not sure what color i'll get them in. i'll have to think about it.
it has been freezing ass cold here lately. when you have to plug your car in so it will start in the morning because it has spent the night in the below zero temperatures, it is not a good thing. i'm pretty sure if my car could do anything it would be kicking my ass for not having a nice garage for it to sleep in.
tomorrow night we are going to get our tree out of the box and put it up. i'm excited about that. i was going to put all white lights on it, but then i changed my mind and am going to put all colored lights on it. i'm going to put the other lights up around the house maybe. again, i'll have to post pictures when i'm done.
on saturday i hope that tucker and i get to visit kim and max! i'm very excited about seeing you both!
on sunday we plan on getting to duluth to get the last of our christmas gifts. we only have three more people to buy for and we already know what we are going to get them so it shouldn't be too bad. i'm also going to be picking up my holiday photocards that i ordered from wallyworld. don't cringe. it's just the way it is. i ordered them online this week. that was cheap and easy and it's done. next year i'd like to do something a little more creative. what do all you guys do for your cards? do you make them? buy them? write a letter? do a family photo? give me the details. i'm curious.
again, in case some of you were not aware of this, tomorrow is friday.
do you know the joy i feel deep in my soul because it will be friday tomorrow?
yeah, i bet you do. :)
I Feel for you! Below Zero! I don't think that I could do it. It gets below zero here but not that often. BRRR

Take a look at the pictures on our site of our living room. Our couches are sage green but so light that they look tan next to a lot of colors. We did cranberry on 2 walls and the other color is called wild honey. Our curtains are the cranberry. The sun is affecting what color the curtains look, but they actually match the paint really well. http://www.babysprague.com/gallery/main.php?g2_itemId=704

can't wait to see the new look, me and pumpkin enjoyed the living room yesterday while cleaning, i think he thought it was pretty cool with the couches all together in a pile in the middle of the living room. we had a great day together!!! can't wait to see him again.........sunday :) :) about the paint if you go like a cranberry, i wouldn't go toooo dark. it will show every little imperfection also, remember that............good luck.........on the curtains too. the last ones i made for you served you well these past years......new ones will look real nice......
