Ended on a Good Note

so yesterday I felt terrible all day long regarding missing Brayden's birthday party that he was invited to. I was just really down on myself and kept thinking of ways to make it up to Brayden and his friend. We are going to have him over this weekend to celebrate his birthday with play time and pizza - what 8 year old boy doesn't like that. Any who, the phone rang last night about 4:45ish and it was my dentist office. I was thinking it was going to be a reminder of an upcoming appointment, to my surprise they were calling to tell me I just won a TV - a 42" Plasma HD TV nonetheless. You would have thought I won a million dollars the way I was going on and on.

I have NEVER won anything, especially anything so big. I was so excited and then Brayden was super excited. Steve and I had been talking about fixing up a corner in the basement until we can afford to fix up the whole basement for the boys to be able to go downstairs and watch TV and play Wii and just have more of an area for themselves. Yes they have taken over the whole room, but I thought it would be exciting for them to have an area for them. So this has become our winter project of fixing up the area. If only that money tree was full then we could finish the whole basement, but that will just have to wait.

I hope everyone is having a good week so far. It is Wednesday, rainy and cold. It is suppose to be like this all week. What fun.

Happy Hump Day!!!

Miss and love you dad ~ so much.

Much love to all,
