Valentines

HAPPY VALETINES DAY!!

Our Valentines started out early this morning packing our ski things and heading up to Winter Park for a full day of hitting the slopes. Before we left on our little skiing adventure I gave Stella one of her Valentines day presents. I found these sterling silver hand stamped earrings last week made by a local jeweler http://www.ninasjewelry.com/ in the coffee shop I go to every morning. I saw them and thought they would be perfect for Stella so I splurged a little!

We got to Winter Park this morning around ten and hit the slopes right away! It was a little chilly and snowing off and on but the conditions were PERFECT!



We got home this afternoon around 4:30ish hoped in the shower and got ready for a night out, just the three of us. We were all feeling in the mood for Italian so we ventured out to one of our favorite places and not thinking ahead didn't make any reservations. We got there and there was a 90 minute wait so, we tried again at a different place and again the same thing. We called a few other places from the car and all ideas were shot down.
Plan B. We ran over to Whole Foods picked up two huge steaks, some asparagus, and some cous-cous and made a night of it at home. It ended up being a fun relaxing night at home. I gave Stella a few more of her Valentines Day presents, some new sketch books and of course some chocolate. For desert we ran down to the drive through Dairy Queen.
What a day! I'm so lucky to have spent it with my two favorite people. Tomorrow is another fun filled day and a trip to the Home and Garden Show. woo-hoo!
Signing off for tonight.
HAPPY VALENTINES DAY!

Change.....

It's time for a change.  I've been wanting to switch blog platforms for quite sometime and just wasn't finding the right one but thanks to a dear friend of mine I was turned onto squarespace. It's taken a minute or two to figure out this new platform but I'm loving it. I've imported all the old content from this blog and am ready to roll. In short, I've moved to a new neighborhood!!! Woot!  I'm humbled that even one person reads my ramblings but when my numbers started hitting the 1000's on a monthly basis I was blown away. For those of you who read this with love, THANK YOU and for those who don't THANK YOU as well. My gratitude runs deep for all of you...... Hope to see you here: www.linda-rokos-watts.squarespace.com

Just say no to mud season.....

It just won't stop!!  We were kinda hoping it would just long enough for Troy to get out of Summit County and on the west side of GlenWood Springs before another big storm came in.  Nope. Didn't happen. It's mud season and nothing unusually or unexpected and I'm sure we will get one or two more storms but.....BOOOOOO!!! Our backyard is pretty beautiful right now!  Bike all packed and ready to go!  We had a few great dinner parties this weekend and I can't say that I'm too bummed Troy isn't on the road. Sunday's snuggled up together watching movies while it dumps outside isn't so awful! Hope you'll are having a fabulous weekend!  Love and Gratitude! 

Weekend Madness!!

WHEW!!!! What a weekend! We got so much work done on the house! We started on Friday and worked pretty much straight through till tonight. With the exception of one little break for a small Halloween party for a few hours. The old kitchen counters. Ewww ! All the tile on the counters couldn't be pulled off without pulling all the plywood up so we decided to demolish it all and start fresh. We put down all new sub-flooring before the tile was to go down. It was kinda a pain in the butt but it made the tile laying much easier and level. With all the sub-flooring laid on Saturday, it was finally time to lay the tile today! Tuesday the grout gets put in and by Thursday we should be walking on it. Woot ! This weekend I also got Stella's room finally done. The colors look great. It's going to be a very warm and cozy room. Pictures of that soon! Hope everyone had a wonderful weekend, and a fun Halloween! Much Love!
