Storage for my scrapbook paper!!! Something similar to these! I am hoping that Russ can go over to my Dad's one of these weekends and make this for me! I would be in heaven!!
I would really love to be able to re-do our whole office so I could have something like this.

St. Patrick's Day!
I'm a little late, but I've been busy! Russ's mom came into town and stayed with us for a week. Saturday we had a St. Patty's Day dinner at our house complete with Corned Beef, Cabbage, Potatoes, Carrots, and Irish Brown Bread! Oh yeah and not to forget Black and Tans! Russ was excited because he was able to use his beer steins be brought back from Germany in 2005, they are heavy when they are full and fit a ton of beer (3 bottles to be exact)!
YUM! I can't wait to do it again next year!

Foto Friday
The other night we came home and since it was raining Russ hung his jacket on the chair to dry before he put it away. Domino used it as a hiding spot. She would barely stick her head out.

Happy Valentines Day!
We celebrated Valentines Day a day late. Saturday night the house was full with people. Sunday everyone headed bay to the Bay since it was snowing pretty good and they didn't want to get stuck up in Tahoe.
It was nice to spend the entire weekend in Tahoe relaxing and hanging out with friends and family!
For our Valentine's Dinner Russ made Fillet Mignon, Roasted Garlic Barley Risotto and Salads. For dessert we had chocolate and Carmel raviolis!
It was a great dinner!!!
