Happy Anniversary to me!!! We have been married 13 years ago today. (I guess yesterday now) Dh and I went out to dinner tonight and left the kids home with my parents. Whoo Hoo for us. We had a great meal. The waitress spill my pop all over the table and kept talking about it. We were at a fancy place, so it was funny. Neither of us got hit and it did not land on our food, so all was well. We were talking about how 13 years ago we would not have dreamed that 13 years from then (so now) we would live in another state and have 5 children (one of them being 14) in a nice house. We have been very lucky. With all of Dh faults and weirdness, I can say that he is very realiable and responsible. He works hard at work and I have never worried about him not having one.

Funny thing, 2 of the three of my brides maids called me tonight. I usually am the one doing the calling. It was nice to hear from them. But both forgot it was our anniversary. I don't mind at all because I never remember the one that is married. With birthday and such I remember, but I dont' remember anyone anniversaries.

On to painting. We have all of the main level done except the front room. We have both stairwells done and the upstairs hallway. My room is done. So tomorrow we have to paint the front room, my bathroom, J's room, and the kids bathroom. We also have a ton of stuff to move and put back. The house was a disaster yesterday. My dad's wife is doing a great job of helping put stuff back. It looks so much better in here. I will post pictures when I have everything put back away. I have been moving pictures and getting rid of things. So it looks much better already. My dad is quick with painting. Last night I went to bed at 2:30 and woke up at 7:30 to get busy again. Now it is after that. I needed to get some stuff moved so we could get started painting. I move a few things, but mainly I just hung pictures and stuff.
