Christmas in January!

The kids got their Christmas presents from Aunt Pauline and had a blast opening them. Jonelle loved her monkey robe and PJ's....Kyle got a really cool "Dad's Little Hunting Buddy " hat and robe and air plane. (he was really excited that the robe was flame retardant) and Aly got Dog stuff: picutre fram, dog bowl, dog ornament and a Mary Moo Moo with a weiner dog. THANKS AUNT PAULINE!!!

Phillip went to the doctor with his finger hurting. He thought he might have broken it, but they are testing to see if it is the gout. We'll see. We started back to the gym today, so hopefully we'll both see some positive changes. My knee is extremely weak, so I found that it was difficult to use the Eliptical for a long period of time. I could only go 20 minutes, which is double the time I was doing at PT, so I guess that is progress.

This is a pretty boring week for us. Nothing exciting planned, but that dosn't mean something won't come up! I am hoping to finish painting in the livingroom this weekend. I'll post new pictures when we do :)

Weekend Project

This weekend we decided to do a little home improvement. I have been wanting to paint our bedroom and bathroom. Phillip wanted to re paint the whole house! We started small and painted the dining room. The color is called Green Fiddlehead. I have looked at so many colors and names it is unbelievable. I think I had about 50 paint chips for the last two days looking through them for colors for all the room except the kids rooms and the den. The kitchen will be Brillant White, the Livingroom will be Green Cloth, our bedroom will be Morning Breeze, our bathroom will be Soothing Aloe, Our sitting room will be Moon Dance and the kids bathroom will be Ship's Ahoy. Are those not the strangest names you have ever heard? I think that will be my next job : paint chip namer.Other names I saw were : Sun Glint, Hidden Spring, Home Song, Dried Palm, Spa, and Jungle Trail.

So, anyway, The living room is next, but that may be a week or two away. I may do the kids bathroom one day next week if I have some spare time....(LOL what's that?)
