Its been a busy few days so I will try to recap...this weekend we were supposed to suprise my dad and phillippe with sky diving...drove there, suprised them, and then it was too cloudy to jump. Dangit. I wish I could jump, id love it i think....oh well.I have some pictures of htem in training....will get more on the 28th when *weather permitting* they will jump.
Its just been a busy week but not alot going on really....I am including some pictures of Vaughns room in progres....we're almost done with it...just need a headboard and a rug and maybe a pink chair for the corner. She loves it and so do I....I've done it all myself and picked it all out so Im pretty proud of her chic little room. The painting her and I did together, the wall quote says "with butterfly kisses and ladybug hugs sleep tight little one like a bug in a rug." I always tell her this so it was cute to see it in a quote...she loves it and always points to it and wants me to "tay it mama" we painted the dresser and the mirrors above the wall I found on craigslist. I made the curtains too...since I dont sew, they are no sew but do the trick....and I am in love with her bedding...hard to see from the photos. I am currently working on a craft table thats just her size for the play room and then I will post some photos of that.


oh yes, I forgot that Rudy and I went through the ever so bonding experience of putting together our first complicated thing together...the grill...took 3 hours and burgers at 11:30 pm just dont taste as good. But its done and Ive used it everyday. I was impressed at how well he could read the no direction directions....only pictures where everything looked the same, but he was able to decifer somehow which screw out of hte 10 different ones was screw c or d or f etc so that was helpful, otherwise it would have taken days.

This week I am getting ready for our garage sale. We are having it at an awesome friends house in Waukee (thanks Barb, your awesome and we so very muchly appreciate you giving up your garage for a few days). I have SO MUCH STUFF that I dont know what to do....totes and totes of clothes, mine and vaughn. An ENTIRE overflowing large garbage tote full of knick knacks, kitchen stuff etc, boxes of books, boxes of toys, shoes galore, purses....just tons of stuff. I had told my sister I didnt have enough to have my own garage sale....until i started looking. then WHAM....it hit me how much crap I have. Yikes! Wish me luck. Pricing is the hardest. You want it cheap enough to go quickly but pricey enough that you get a little money for it and its so hard because things have memories and you want to price them 20 for a little shirt that has a great memorie of your baby attatched to it....but its only worth maybe a quarter....I am keeping some of her baby clothes but its still hard to pick and choose.
