Well today was a ok day... rather stressful in our house lately, Jer has been having a rough last few days with work crap... hopefully he can feel better about things soon! I ask all of you to think of him this week and say a prayer or two :) so things will brighten up for him...

On a lighter side... the house made LOTS of happy progress today :) The bedrooms upstairs got plastered today... they look amazing!!! So happy with the look, makes it look like a new house... looks so different. They didn't get it all done thou, they have Mitchel's closet to finish and they have the upstairs hallway to do yet... but its really looking more and more like a home... YEAH!!!! So tonight I was really playing with the paint swatches, trying to figure it all out... but I have all this week to pick things out and I am going to make sure its what the boys and I both want for their rooms. Our new bedding and bed frame for our bedroom got ordered today... EXCITING!!! Over the weekend we ordered carpet for the bedrooms so we could have them made into area rugs for the bedrooms, we bought our outside door lights... and looked at bathroom tiles for downstairs but nothing really striked us so we will keep looking. Last night our "name stone" above the door was put in... its LOOKS SO COOL!!!!! If you drive by or walk by... check it out!!!

Also today boys went to the farm, they had a good time from the sounds of it... Mitchel had to come back to town for his "sports physical"... yes he is old enough that he has to have one this year if he wants to be involved in sports... scary, my boys are growing up TOO FAST!!! So after Mitchel's physical he wanted to bike back out to the farm... I thought he was joking... but he wasn't... so he and his friend, Quintion biked out to the farm... I made him take his cell with him and checked in with him on his progress... time got away on me and when I called him it was like 25 mins or so later and he was already there... JEESH!!! they didn't waste anytime getting here and they made it safely there is the BIG thing!!! He was SO proud to tell me that he was there already... I was SHOCKED but he likes to bike and when we were in CO... they biked a lot further than what he did to the farm and on steeper and rougher roads.

So while the boys were gone, I ran some errands, ran Ms. Sophie's birthday gift to her, went to mom's... and came home to do a few things here... then it was time to go meet our plumber at the house... and that is when we saw the new plaster on the walls upstairs... it was pretty darn exciting!!! Then we were off to go meet up with the plastering guy to pick out our finishes for downstairs... its all picked out and will be started within a few weeks... I CAN'T WAIT!!!!!!

Tonight was a night for just Jer and I... we got a sitter and went into DBQ just to get away for awhile, went to Applebees for supper and got a few groceries and came home but it was a nice little outing.

Not much else to share today... pretty boring... I know but I'm not "slacking" on my blogging... makes me feel better when I at least write something to my "avid" readers. Hope you are all well!!

Prayers to Jer. Jerry is having tough times too, esp getting someone competent enough to do wireless for him now that Marty is gone. Sorry to hear about Mitchell's bike. You'll have to keep me updated on the progress there.
