Yesterday I got all my cleaning done that I wanted to accomplish over the weekend and we also worked in Zach's room, cleaning and taking down the bunk beds.  We also went into the dormers and dug out a bunch of old Christmas stuff that was stored there since we moved in.
The only thing left in his room is to do the closet... maybe tomorrow?


Then today was spent getting Chel's senior...

Last night I went to an Archiver's crop with my sister, Trish, Jen and Maryann.  This was my first time to crop there and I have to say it was pretty nice - though I could have used more table space.  I guess next time I just won't pack so much stuff! 
The highlights of the night included spending time with friends, laughing so hard that...

Until his spring break begins  and so am I.
He and his cousin Cameron will have plans to fill most of the days together along with another friend Paul.
But he's reserved Monday for me.  We are going to tear apart his bedroom, take down the bunk bed and re arrange his room.  (well, we need dad to take down the bunk bed) Then we may even take the border down and change some other things?  We'll...

away from home yesterday!  Between work and then picking up Zach from school, then grocery shopping
(which I hate by the way) - it's such a repetitive job.  Load the groceries in the cart, put on conveyer, put back in cart, load your car, unload your car, unload groceries!  OMG how many times shall I move these same items!
Before we even brought the groceries home we ran over to Verizon  since...

Was a quiet day - I worked the first half of the day and then met my mom at Panera after picking up Zach from school.  She made Zach a pumpkin pie and wanted to give it to him.  She's in a baking mood lately.
I also got my order from Norma's uppercase living party and had to put it up.  The order from my party has been placed and hopefully soon I'll have more words than I know what to do with,...

Well we began the weekend with a girlfriend night out for dinner!  What a blast as usual.  Talking, sharing and laughing about our childhood.
Then we all met up again early Saturday morning to board the bus and head down to the Longaberger Homestead and to Dresden. 
Debbie and Brenda drove in from Michigan the night before to go to the dinner and then on the bus trip. Kim always says that Brenda...
