The Weekend in Pictures

Michelle, at Rosetta Stone (who, incidentally, linked to me today, too), recommended that in order to get past my writer’s block, I could post a daily picture that sums up my day.  I love that idea!  But since my dear husband has been hogging the computer all weekend, diligently making sure Boo’s Cub Scout den is all squared away, I’ll have to give you my whole weekend all at once.  We were highly productive and crossed many things off our list.

Brought a toy bin shelf downstairs for Bip’s toys.  I’ll make him new picture labels for the bins that need them.  He’s so happy to be able to see his toys and have easy access to them.   Makes it easier for us all to help him clean up, too.

Got enough moving boxes out of the playroom to finally set up the train table.  Boo and Pumpkin Girl even set up a train set on the floor for Bip.  Phil and the children salvaged this train table one day on the way home from Sunday school.  The owners had not been able to sell it at their garage sale and had stuck it out on the curb for trash pickup.  We have not been able to fit it into the house until now.

Got started making a rosary for Boo’s First Communion. Don’t tell him, it’s a surprise.

Bought Pumpkin Girl an Easter dress.

Bought a child-size guitar for Boo, who is finally ready to take lessons, instead of strumming away like a crazy man.

Bought storage containers for some of the children’s toys. (Don’t everyone get all green-eyed over my lovely linoleum floor!)

Finally, after over a year and a half, repaired this really cool Buzz Lightyear clock that we bought in Korea.  Pumpkin Girl dropped it the day after we bought it and one of the stars broke off.  We had less than a week left in Korea and could not get a replacement.  The stars tip back and forth like a pendulum and without both of them, it wouldn’t work properly.

Entered all the Wolf Cubs’ acheivements into a spread sheet.

And lastly, my parents were able to buy and ship us this Thomas Kinkade painting from Disneyland.  We almost bought it while we were there in November, and pretty much as soon as we got home regretted not buying it.
