Nothing says 'I love you' like assembling furniture together

...Or in this case, a green house. While many spent their weekends celebrating Valentines day, I spent mine with my husband assembling our new green house. We started off with this HUGE pile of boxes...


...and two days later we have a green house 3/4 of the way complete.


The directions said that this should take two adults five hours to complete. I call bull crap because we worked on it for 12 hours and still have 4-5 to go. The instructions were all illustrations like Ikea furniture which is ok, but they were way too vague which had us adding on parts backwards. Oh the frustration of having to un-do a section that just took you an hour to finish only to have to take it back down because you put it on wrong side round.

Anyhoo. That's it for our weekend excitment. Next weekend will be more of the same since we still need to assemble the three planting beds that are sitting in their boxes. We don't really celebrate V-day so we don't have any special plans for tonight. (Though I do have plans to dye my roots. Exciting, eh?) Hope all of you who celebrate have a great one.
