About not having Internet conection...





































Oh, my goodness, not having Internet service it STINKS! I hate it! Comcast had been having problems in this area, so I was out of service for quite a few days, and then, when they finally came to fix the lines, they realized it was the MODEM!!! ARGGGHH!!!
In any event, here are some of the pictures of the new rooms. We're still pretty behind with the whole downstairs area, we want to paint again (same colors, just a new coat), change the living room into our family room (we realize we don't use the formal living room / dinning room very often, and it's really wasted huge space!), the dinning room will now go into our family room, and I will no longer know where in tarnation I am for the next few weeks, but hopefully it will all come together nicely.

Anyways, here are some pictures of my scraproom, Connor's bedroom and the new loft / play area for the kids... almost there, now!!!

WOW PAULA!!!!!

I can't wait to come over and actually see it all first hand and I have to say I'm waaaaay impressed!!! I can so visualize it all. Love the colors you've chosen and it really looks GREAT!

I also love the idea about changing your family room to the dining room and then using your 'formal' living room as your new family room...I've had similar thoughts about that myself! How funny.

Anyway, looking Goooood!! Sorry to hear about that doggone modem issue, that really stinks!

A few weeks ago, after work, I heard Brian scolding Cesar. (If you don't know it, Brian and I work from home, so my office is just a few steps from the kitchen, so i can hear pretty well) He was starting to sound VERY unhappy, especially because Cesar wouldn't own up to his mistake. OUCH! So, here I come into the kitchen and start listening in: BRIAN: "What do you mean you didn't take them? Are you hording them? Did you hide them?" CESAR: "Brian, I didn't take them, really" BRIAN: "What do you mean you didn't take them? Coco and Connor can't reach them. Mom wouldn't take them, and they did NOT grow legs". ME: "What are you guys talking about?" BRIAN: "It's just that we had the gumballs' container almost to the middle this morning, and now, there's barely one layer of them. The only one who could have done it is Cesar, and he won't even tell the truth!" ME: "Eh... mmmhhhh ... did we have t

Before I start my update... I just had to take a picture of Connor. He is such a BOY!!! I think boys are programmed to be goofy... If you have a boy, I'm sure you have found these kids of scenes, pretty much daily! Anyways, this Good Friday I participated in The Way of the Cross celebrated at 3 pm in front of the Planned Parenthood clinic we have in Aurora. I was so glad to see such a large group, it kept growing as the minutes went by. It was pretty cold, and as usual, I was not wearing a sweater or jacket, but it was well worth it. We prayed for the babies being killed, for their mothers and for the doctors and nurses that assist them. May God help them all. As I did this, Noni came to take the kids to decorate eggs. We did decorate some at home on Saturday, too, but Noni's were a lot more dramatic, especially the one with all those feathers! Coco and Connor found some presents from the Bunny on Sunday morning. After church, we went to Noni and Papa's to celebrate with ou

I made this little book that came with my CHS March kit . Now, since my dear friend Tracie in her blog made me very aware of not posting other people's kids on my blog, I can't show all the pages inside, but I made this book to house all those little pictures of kids that exchange school pictures with my kids... I really LOVED it and made it in a night, while Brian watched tv by my side (that was SOOO COOL!) The paper is Scribble Scrabble (the one i bought like a month ago at that store that I found!), cardstock is bazzill, the stamp is by Stampin' Up!, letter stickers by doodlebug, flowers are Prima (are there any others???) Feel the itch to scrap!
