Margaret's First Day of BIG GIRL School

There is a lot more to this story....text will come later.

Getting a BIG Haircut...again

Back to Blogging...

A very wise friend told me a few weeks ago that it does not matter how "behind" I am in blogging, just to get back into it and start now. She said she does it for herself and for her girls. I do this for Margaret and for me, so she is right...who cares if it is out of order. We were there for it all and as long as it is documented we can read and remember it together. So, after nearly a year of totally not keeping track...here goes.

A VERY Snowy day....not so much!

The Nutcracker!! Christmas 2008

HAPPY 5TH BIRTHDAY MEGAN!!

Hard work in the new house.....

I closed on the new house in early, mid December and it has been a whirlwind since then! So many people have asked for pictures and updates, and I have just been too overwhelmed to get it done. Here is my first feeble attempt! I have been poor at best about taking pictures lately.
Margaret's room was the first one finished. It was an unbelievable amount of work! The short version is that with the MANY layers of wallpaper that came down...most of the wall did too. oops! We had to completely re-do walls with sheetrock mud and LOTS of sanding. YUCK! It was done by my deadline of Christmas Eve and Margaret was able to go to the new house and see it all set up and pretty for the first time on Christmas morning. Santa had even left a dollhouse for her in her new room. She was delighted!! Sadly, I did not take many or well any that I can put my hands on, pictures of these renovations! UUUGGG! Pictures of her finised room will be posted SOON!
More text to come as I have time...
