I know, interesting title.  But see, you have to know what the last week was like in my house.  Last weekend we were gone to a wedding.  All week, the earliest my hubby came home from work was 7 pm.  Needless to say, the house was a wreck.  On top of all that, I was changing hosting due to many issues with Bluehost (which I will blog about later!).

Hell froze over because well, the hubby actually got it into his head that we needed to clean the house.  Not only that, he helped.  We went from room to room and actually cleaned the majority of the house.  He actually got on his hands and knees and cleaned the tub.  He used an old toothbrush to clean the jets on the whirlpool.  That’s what a good job he did.  We rearranged the living room again too!  After the kids went to bed last night, he also went grocery shopping and managed to spend less than $200 too!  (However, some of his choices were not so good so I’ll be going back, but I am not complaining.)

It feels good to have a semiproductive weekend.  This afternoon we will be going to one of his friend’s house for a little party, and I am not sure what we have in store for tomorrow.

Basements and Barstools

I know that my husband is just dying to put a bar in our newly remodeled basement.  That was a plan he always had since we moved here.  Premiere Barstools has so many choices for anyone who is looking for counter stools, extra tall stools, or kitchen bar stools. They have an excellent selection for all of those.

Like I said, I personally am looking to surprise my husband with some bar stools for the basement.  Now, I cannot decide if something classic like this:

bar stools 1207 1 300x300 Basements and Barstools

would work best or if something more pretty would be in store.  I found an excellent deal on something like this:

BARSTOOLS 02051ESP 01 KD U 1 300x300 Basements and Barstools

I guess it will probably come down to what kind of bar he decides to build.  With having little ones, a lot of extra things come into play.  As for the first stool, I would be worried about the stool having no back.  Whereas, on the second stool, I would be worried that Will (my one year old) would use this chair as a climbing challenge (Yes, for some reason he has started the climbing stage after he learned to walk!).  However, the second chair is about $85 which is a great price for barstools.  Plus, whenever we get around to remodeling kitchen, these would look nice there.  I have a huge kitchen (I think it is 15 x 15), so at some point we are going to remodel it.  We may add in an island, and those stools would look awesome there too!  Decision, decisions . . .

Do you have barstools in your house?  What kinds did you go with?  Did where they were going make a difference to which ones you got?  Do you use the barstools as extra seating when company is over?  I know, lots of questions, but I have never bought these before!

Happy Birthday!

I have to wish my dear hubby a Happy Birthday today!  We have nothing special planned, so I am not sure what we are doing tonight.  Madison wants to go to McDonalds!  LOL  I have a feeling that is not going to be happening.  My mom’s birthday was yesterday so she gets a happy birthday wish too!  Now, we put candles on both their cakes, I wouldn’t need any lighting in my house at all!  Seriously though, I have to go check and see if we have any cake mix, so we can make daddy a cake.  If we do, I’ll make sure we post a picture.  If not, I’m running to the grocery store for cupcakes.
