Hubby and I don’t always do gifts. During lean years or times when we don’t need or want anything we may forgo Christmas gifts, birthday gifts and anniversary presents. Other times we go all out. This Valentines day I gave Hubby a six pack of Sam Adams. It may seem silly, but he liked it so much more than a card and cologne! He spent the entire weekend re-doing my KITCHEN!
Yeah! Our kitchen was nice before, but the several shades of green just weren’t for me. I wanted Spice and lots of it! Hubby delivered and not only painted the walls, but the cabinets. He also bought matching rugs, and wall decor, built a corner shelf and just all around did a fabulous job!
Hubby is the decorater in our relationship. I hate having to pick out colors and decorations. It put way to much stress on me as I am freaked out about choosing wrong. If it were up to me all my wall would be ecru and I’d have no curtains, not because I dislike color and decoration, but picking things out paralizes me (a lot like crafts). Hubby, however, does a great job with colors and I am content and very greatful that he is.
He said next year he is getting me flowers… maybe I’ll get him a twelve-pack…

Gorgeous!! This is definitely more “you”. I hope the picture tree and saying was salvaged for another place in the house – I love that! Can’t believe he did all that in a weekend! And for the price of a 6 pack, too? Like I offered the last time he did some remodeling job – if you ever want to trade hubbies (temporarily), I’m game!
