What a beautiful day!

I am so glad spring is actually decided to show up, at the right time, and hang out. Today started with a bang...not enough sleep, the cats being poops (for lack of a better word) and needing to clean the house.

I was woken up at a little after 7am by Miss Bella who thought it was fun to play in the blinds and when I couldn't go back to sleep I went to the living room to watch some TV. Usually Bella would calm down and I would be able to fall back to sleep...not today. Every time my eyes would get heavy she would start to cry. Now those of you with no cats, cats can cry. And oh man does Bella do a good one! Anyway, about 9:30 or so Jake woke up and the day had to start.

A little later Jake and I got in a STUPID fight about cleaning and hung out at separate ends of the house for a little while to cool off. After the fight, and scrubbing the kitchen floor on my hands and knees, I decided it was way to nice to be inside. Being that I had just thrown a fit that the house was so dirty and I wanted a GOOD clean, not a 'boy' clean, it was a little hard to tell Jake I wanted to go out side and stop cleaning. But I did and I'm sure he thought I was crazy, or just PMSing :O)

After checking the weather, figuring out tomorrow would be a better day to be inside we got dressed and left the house. We went to lunch, talked about our 10 year high school reunions that are this summer...I know, 10 years already? How? Where did time go? After lunch we went on a little bit of a shopping spree to Fred Meyer, Ross, Kohl's and last but not least Home Depot. We got a lot of really good deals and some great things for the house. We got towel hangers for the bathroom doors so we can take the racks off the walls and put in some cabinets. I'll post some pictures when Jake gets it put together and on the wall. I'm very excited to have some place to keep all of my make-up so it doesn't have to sit on the counter!

After we got home Jake went to the gym and I decided to move some of the rocks in our front yard being that it was so nice and sunny outside. Whoever thought it was a good idea to put rocks in a garden area was just CRAZY! And they are not even pretty rocks to boot. They are plain ol' river rock. And let me tell you, it is a pain in the a$$ to get them out of the dirt! Jake got home and some how I convinced him to help me. So he used the shovel and I continued filling the 5 gallon bucket. We actually made a lot of progress, I'm actually surprised how much we got done. I can not wait to get the top soil, the extra from the raised garden bed, down so we can start planting some flowers and making the area look really nice! I will post some pictures of this later too.

So all in all it was a good day! I hope we have more days like this.
