Happy March from the girls!
February was eventful for the Butters family. We started out the month by celebrating Andrew’s grandma’s birthday, enjoying Superbowl craziness and dealing with the removal of Andrew’s wisdom (teeth). We also replaced all of our home’s interior and exterior doors, completed our taxes and ended the month with a cockroach fiasco.
Wisdom Teeth
Andrew had all four wisdom teeth removed on February 10. He did not undergo anesthesia, so the whole experience was unfortunately memorable. However, with the aid of pain medication, frozen peas, LOTS of soup and mashed potatoes, couch sleeping and his lovely wife, he is back to his normal shenanigans.
Valentine’s Day
Love day was consumed with work and wisdom teeth pain, but we still managed to enjoy one of our favorite holidays. We kicked it off by celebrating one year since our engagement on February 12! Andrew was stuck celebrating at home, but I was able to decorate sugar cookies with my sister and Aunt Net. On the actual day I was surprised with flowers and my favorite chocolate bar, and then the next weekend we were able to exchange cards and hit happy hour at RA. I even got my life together enough to make special sugar cookie puppy chow for my coworkers!
Home Renovation
We thought the doors would be a major feat for February, but we ended up doing even more than we thought. Somehow I ordered new sliding closet doors on top of what we had planned, due to Andrew being home during the measuring and me being a bit distracted when ordering. Also, we had a cockroach infestation on Tuesday, so all of our kitchen cabinets had to be emptied. It was (and is) stressful, but on the bright side our kitchen project just got bumped up to this weekend. Wish us luck and check back here for updates…
