Progress

This weekend is the last of the yard sale, yay! I can't wait 'til that is done. We painted one room so far and hope... I mean WILL paint the other upstairs room, stair well, and foyer. After that it is on to painting the kitchen and bathrooms. Today I took down all the annoying wall paper border in the bathrooms, kitchen, and upstairs bedroom to prepare for painting. I have packed about 12ish boxes and have just a few more things to pack in the kitchen. Amazingly it seems that is most of the packing is done, maybe a couple more for clothes and other odds and ends. Then it is off to vacation which may or may not end up REALLY being vacation but just getting things ready to move out there. That is all for now :)

So Far....

This Morning :
Leland woke up an hour earlier than normal.
Caleb decided it was a good idea to eat his cereal on the couch and spilled it just as I had discovered where he was.
As I was cleaning up the cereal mess Leland spilled the cats water and ate a piece of cat food, Yuck!
I need to be out the door in about 45 minutes and I haven't even showered yet.
So why on earth am I on the computer AAAAAAAHHHHH!

AAAAAAHHH Elmos Gonna Get Me!

Random Stuff

Leland eating his first pizza crust.
He really liked it.


Pizza crust heaven.


Trying to shove as much into his mouth as possible.


Leland playing with his friend Julian.
It seems even at the baby stage they always
want whatever someone else is playing with


Julian: "what is that shinny light flashing contraption?"
Leland: " Put that thing away or I will beat you with this
almighty powerful paper towel roll."

Yard Sale

My apologies, I have no actual pictures of what last weekends yard sale looked like... we were just a tad too busy I suppose. It was fairly successful. The first day it took me three hours to set up everything(I was awake by 6am) then I waited, and waited.... and waited but nobody came. Dave suggested I go make sure our signs were still okay, turns out they had curled up over night from the moister in the air and no one could see the signs. We made new signs and as Dave was putting them up people started coming woohoo! The first day we sold the pool and a few more small items. The second day was much better our first customer bought a bed frame, bakers rack and side tables. We had lots of people come and bought a decent amount of stuff and our final amount was around $260... not too bad. Next weekend I'll put out some more furniture items and a few more things I found that we don't need then what ever is left from that we'll bring to the salvation army. Thank you to Vanessa for the good advice on having a yard sale!
