That just so happens to be the name of my new nail polish. Sean called me on his way home from work and wanted to know if I wanted to meet him at our favorite nail place for a pedicure. I said, "Heck yes!" So, jumped in the van and headed to ULTA to pick out a new nail polish. I grabbed a cup of coffee, too. We both got a pedicure and a manicure. Yes, my husband periodically gets pedicures and manicures. I think it's awesome! Hip hip hurray for my wonderful husband!

happy new year

Well, we made it through the holidays. I think my family was on the verge of a meltdown, but we made it through. Sean and I attended several Christmas parties. Then the week of Christmas we set off to travel around the 4-state area to be with family. My sister and her family came to be with us for Christmas this year. That was fun! Traveling during the holidays is just stressful! Holly and Sean both had a birthday we celebrated. The kids go back to school Monday. This week should be interesting as they get back in the routine of going to bed and getting up early and doing homework. Yep, should be very interesting indeed.

We had a very blessed Christmas. We all got many nice things. I even got a new sewing machine! I haven't got it out of the box yet, but I will soon! Sean is getting me a new bass guitar which I will post pictures of when that comes in. That's exciting! So, if we can make it through this next week, we should be good.

Sean and I will be celebrating 5 years of marriage on January 31. I'm looking forward to that more and more since Sean says our little celebration will be a surprise. Wow...a surprise.
