Good Morning! Glad your Monday went so well Court. I hope everything continues to go well for the girls. My Monday was good as well. Work went pretty smoothly. After work I got a lot accomplished. I washed all of the windows and sills in the house. Cleaned up and vacuumed the living room. Dusted some stuff. Unpacked a few boxes in the office and organized the closet in here. Then I got dinner made before DH got home. After he came home we ate real quick and he had his first night of Bocce Ball leagues. Sadie and I went along but spent most of our time at the playground and no****ching daddy. She is so funny...she doesn't want anything to do with the slide/swings etc.... She just wants to sit and dig in the dirt for hours. I'm thinking I need to head back to the store and get her some more sand toys. She is her momma's girl. When I was a little girl I spent hours and hours in the sandbox at our pastor's house with his boys. Today is a busy day but should be good. Sadie has kindermusik class and ECFE class tonight. I think we're going to pick daddy up from work in between the two and stop to get something for dinner. I'm already excited for the weekend. I really love my husband's dad's family. They are so much like my own family and make me feel so much a part of them all and have since day one. DH's grandma is moving from a house into an apt this weekend. DH's aunt and uncle from the other side of the state are coming to town to help. They are Sadie's godparents. I'm so looking forward to spending some time with them all in the evening after the move. I am thinking I'll call up and offer to make something for dinner since the guys will be soooo hungry after working all day. They also have a granddaughter 1 yr younger than Sadie so it'll be fun to get the girls together again.
Jamie I am jealous!! I can't wait to go camping. We don't have a camper though and it's a bit cold here to be tenting it yet. We are actually thinking of getting a new tent for this yr. I think we'll plan a weekend in June sometime to take Sadie camping. My husband's family has land on a lake about 2 hrs from here so we can go camp anytime we want for free. All we have to do is bring our food and gear. DH can't wait to show Sadie how to fish this yr. We might drive down there for a day on Memorial weekend just to visit. Glad you found something close to home...maybe you'll be able to fit in an extra weekend or so this yr.
Well, I better get back to work! Have a great Tuesday!
Michelle, so glad your kitty came out. It is so typical with cats to freak with a move. I remember when I was younger we had the same problem with one of ours when we moved.
Jaime, sounds like your camping trip was great. A new location close to home will be wonderful for you guys.
We did have a message from the realtor yesterday that the approval papers were supposed to come through yesterday. We never heard anything else so we are still waiting. There are so many family things coming up in the next few months and I really wish we could just get an answer so I can start planning things. Ugh!
Got to go camping overnight saturday. It was nice. Found a campground about 35 miles from us, and within walking distance from the Matanuska River.
So, since DH has to work nearly every Sunday, it is good to know, that if we want to go camping, we have a nice spot to get away to


Court, glad you had a nice weekend. I have been thinking of your stepdaughters, so I am glad you mentioned about them. I hope they are all doing better.
Michelle, YAY HUBBY!!!!!!!!! What GREAT news!!!! Glad your kitty is adjusting to it's new home.

Edit----I forgot to post that my hubby got his letter of approval from insurance for lap band surgery. He's getting scared but still says he's doing it. He has to hire a couple of people at work since he's lost some employees...once he has them trained he can have the surgery. He needs someone to replace him while he's out. LOL
We still didn't hear about our house. It is driving us nuts.
I hope you have an enjoyable weekend, with your mom and stepmom.
Michelle, have a GREAT mother's day YOUR new home!!!!! Glad you were able to get your kitty!!! It will adjust to it's new home, eventually.
Hard to believe that last Mother's day, we spent all day moving some of the big yard stuff over to our new home, even though we had not signed on the house (we signed May 21st). So, I did not do anything with my mom, or sister, turns out, they went out to lunch.
Tonight, we are going camping for the weekend!!!!!
I made plants for my mom, sister. sister in-law and Mark's 2 aunts that all live up here in Alaska. Got Mark's mom's card in the mail, so it will be there to her by Mother's day.
YAY FOR CAMPING!!!!!!!
