Celebrations Continue...

Today was my husbands birthday. My boys had planned to take him on an ice fishing adventure for the day. I was excited for him to go and enjoy the day with his boys doing what he loves. I was invited but they all knew I would no way handle the cold, especially during this awful flare-up. So I stayed home with my youngest daughter. We enjoyed spending the day together, watching movies, and helping her decorate her room with her Christmas gifts.

For Christmas this year she wanted her room painted and re-decorated. In fact she was so excited to start on her room, that right after she opened her Christmas presents she went down and started removing everything out of her room, getting it ready for paint. She had her brother and Dad help her tape and putty the nail holes in her walls the day after Christmas. Two days after Christmas her and I painted the corners and edges of her room. Shaniah was pretty relentless and last night she made sure her Dad finished painting her room before he could go on his fishing trip for his birthday.

She was so excited to see her room painted the color she has wanted for the past two years. I have to admit I was pretty hesitant at first to paint a room red, but it really turned out quite well. Plus to see her excitement was even more rewarding. She accented her room with black, grey, and a white bed spread and curtains. She has black furniture and loved how her red walls made such a beautiful background for them.

Shaniah loved the paint she got for Christmas. She has always wanted red walls!

I have to admit I was worried at first about what a red wall would look like, but turns out they look pretty classy after all.

After my hubby and boys got home from fishing we had a family dinner at home with all of our children and grand baby. We enjoyed good food and had fun playing games after dinner. It was such a fun night celebrating my sweethearts birthday today. HAPPY BIRTHDAY HONEY!  Hope you had a great day… You deserve it! LOVE YA!
