Valentine's Day dinner

Bryan always makes my favorite meal for me on Valentine's Day.  I love it!  

Snow storm

We have had a weird winter with a lot of snow and rain.  This is great for us because we need the water in our mountains and lakes.  Whoever has been praying for the end of the drought, it has been working.

Finished bed

We got the bed finished!  It took a bit longer to do than we thought because the slats didn't work the way we wanted so we ended up buying a  base.

These slats didn't work the way they should have so we didn't feel it would be as stable as it needed to be.  So we bought a base to use.

I think it turned out really well and I'm proud of our building efforts!

Broken fish tank

Courtney's fish tank was disgusting so I decided to clean it.  It didn't go well. I took the fish out of the tank and got him all situated.

I dumped out the old water into the toilet in the bathroom and then used the tub to fill the bowl with clean water. I thought I was doing really well until my hand slipped and the bowl fell back into the bathtub and SHATTERED!

I took a minute to grieve and look at the mess.  I put gloves on to pick up all the glass and try to get the rocks so I could clean them.  After a while, I got the rocks all cleaned and the glass thrown away.  Then I got in the van and went to Walmart to buy a new fishbowl for Courtney.  It all turned out well but it took a lot longer than it should have to clean the fishtank.

Cleaned carpet

We decided to try and save money by cleaning our own carpets.  I rented the carpet cleaner from Lin's and started on Friday night.  It was such a long process!  It's been a while since we have had our carpet cleaned so it took 2 times over the carpet to get it clean.  It was hot water so the house was hot and humid.  We did a great job but decided we are going to pay someone to do this the next time because it was too much of a pain!

Courtney's SCHS jerseys

I decided it would be fun to put Courtney's SCHS soccer jerseys in frames.  Michael's was having a sale so I got them for quite a bit less than normal, which was great.  I think they turned out well.  Courtney chose the ones she wanted to be framed (home vs away vs Breast Cancer Awareness). The #28 is from her senior year and the pink #14 is from her freshman year.  

City Center Temple

 Ethan went to the Provo City Center Temple with Leigh Ann to do an endowment session.  He sent me these pictures. It was an early session so it was dark when he went inside.
