Under Construction

Oops, I did it again! I've fallen into the bad blogger trap but this time I have good reason.

Our house was a little upside down last week as we had painters and other workers in and out. The kitchen was completely off limits and since that's where the computer desk resides, I was out of luck. Unless I wanted to type sitting in the bed and that gives me a crick in my neck so I opted not to do that. Fortunately, we are now back up and running and I have a whole new respect for my kitchen. No, I still don't get excited about cooking in it but it sure is pretty passing through. It took being w/out it for me to realize just how important it really is. Trying to pack a lunch w/no refrigerator, having to use a cooler as a refrigerator and washing cups in the bathroom sink is not my idea of fun. I might also add that the never ending supply of crap tape, plastic and butcher paper on the floor was not good for my OCD. I spent a large amount of time trying to figure out a way to make the mess look neater. The other part of my time was spent doing more exciting things; like...

taking my shining star to his dress rehearsal for his upcoming play, Paradesia

spending time in our backyard, watching the boys play in the sprinkler, popping "poppers" and having a picnic w/take-out food

celebrating Memorial Day at Uncle Carl's house, swimming, fishing and riding 4-wheelers

and watching our soon-to-be 1st grader read a book to his little brother!

Stay tuned, we have lots of exciting things going on in the next 7 days. This time, I promise to be a better blogger...scout's honor!
