Well, hello!

I am the type of person who loves looking back at old yearbooks, day planners, and notes from years past and reliving what I was doing on this exact day ten or fifteen years ago. Call me a hoarder, but I do have a few day planners from Jr. High where I could tell you what I wore to school on any given day or what homework assignement I had in English class. I love looking back at fun memories and holding on to little pieces of the past, the truth is as much as I love the little momentos - I hate clutter even more!

That's why I've decided to give blogging another shot. I've been terrible in the past at keeping up, but this time I am ready to make a better effort! How fun it will be to electornically scroll through our lives this time next year and see what we were doing on February 22, 2012?!? How fun for Kailee to be able to scroll through pictures or read posts when she is older?!?! These are reasons enough to get started and stick with it! I like it!

So I am hoping that on this day next year when I sit down to read what I was up to today that I am doing it in the comfort of my painted, cozy, decorated basement. Today I picked up two more paint samples. This brings the total count of samples to an absurd amount, but the good news is...I love them both! The decision is finally narrowed to two choices that Abe and I both like. Fabulous! Here are the choices - on the left is Silver Tinsel and on the right is Silver Sage! I cannot wait to post the finished room - I will be happy dancing all over the basement, indeed!
