Since moving Whitney into her new room, her walls have been completely bare. We had to do something about that. I made an attempt at being creative and painted these:
What do you think?I'm happy with the way they turned out. I bought letter stencils for the words and printed a paisley off the internet and fashioned into a home-made stencil for the embellishment. They add a little flair to her walls. Very fun.
Andrew and I went out for our Valentine's date this weekend. We went the traditional route--a nice dinner. We got reservations at one restaurant. But then when we got there found out that we'd still have a 30 minute wait, even with the reservation. What's up with that? Why take a reservation if you don't really mean it? It was annoying. We walked out and found a yummy Japanese restaurant right down the street. Our waitress was a really cute middle-aged Asian woman. I think she had a crush on Andrew. She told him, "I'll give you a special price on that dish." and kind of winked at him. Usually Andrew teases me that he can't let me out on the town alone, but now I'm thinking I better keep my eye on HIM. :)

You need to add "making reservations and still having to wait" to your list of things that bug you. (-:
The restaurant we went to on Valentine's I called to make a reservation and they laughed at me. They said I don't need a reservation for just two people and then we had to wait about 20 min.
I like what you painted. What did you paint them on? For some reason I'm not very good at doing stuff with stencils. I tried making a "Families are Forever" sign on some wood blocks and they turned out terrible, so good job!
Hey Andrea,
Cool pictures! I bet Whitney loves them. You are so creative. Oh, I did finally get around to checking those dates for you...it looks like we are definately out of town for David's work retreat. Sorry :(. We would love to any other time though! Keep us in mind! Hope things are going well.

I hope all goes really well with your Dr. Buckley visit - give us a call tonight and let us know what he says!
Love to all,
Grandma Sweat
Cute signs!! Be sure to post a picture of them up in her room, okay?? You and Andrew are such a cute couple:) We still haven't had our V-day date yet...that'll be this Saturday when we have a babysitter, hopefully!!
Good luck with Dr. Buckley!!
What we want to know is if the guy who was behind the cash register flirted with you, Andrea.
You two are NOT a "cute couple"...
you are a couple of movie stars; I've yet to see a "bad" picture of either of you.
Does the reservation thing remind you of the following?
Jerry: I don't understand, I made a reservation, do you have my reservation?
Agent: Yes, we do, unfortunately we ran out of cars.
Jerry: But the reservation keeps the car here. That's why you have the reservation.
Agent: I know why we have reservations.
Jerry: I don't think you do. If you did, I'd have a car. See, you know how to take the reservation, you just don't know how to *hold* the reservation and that's really the most important part of the reservation, the holding. Anybody
can just take them.
Denny--you are HILL-arious. Yes, that's exactly how I felt!
