And a Happy New Year!

Our New Year's Eve was pretty exciting. Any time we feel like we haven't argued in awhile we go purchase a piece of hard-to-assemble furniture. This was actually our first time doing it but if any of you are craving a gold old fashioned "discussion" I highly recommend buying an office desk, with at least 100 pieces to assemble, which may or may not be labeled, and then go into a room and decide not to leave until the desk is complete. You think this will take an hour. Five hours later you're hungry, tired, and you can't figure out why the drawer doesn't sit right. Seriously- that's what we did. All night. After it was done, we realized it was actually kind of fun. I think we did a midnight toast with cocoa.  What better way to ring in the new year? 
Notice the white plate organization system for small pieces

FINALLY FINISHED!! A real looker.



2010 was a REALLY good year: romantic engagement, perfect wedding, tropical honeymoon and a lot of vacations.... but.... I have high hopes for 2011- here's to graduation!

  1. :) :) The first of many late night assemblies. Try Christmas Eve putting bikes and other toys together and discovering there are missing pieces. Glad you can joke about it. Makes all the difference!
