I'm a Catholic convert (from Protestantism) in love with Jesus and the Church He founded. I'm married to Forrest, an amazing man who has made quite a journey with me, following God, and we are blessed with six precious children.

Woo hoo!

We have a lot of stuff to do this week. Rick & Rachel and Kyrie are coming in 6 days, and we've been working on the kids' room, getting it all finished. That means we have to have it finished pretty much by the end of this week, because the boys' boy table (along with all their toys, scattered over the room) is in our guest room. We also have a bunch of other stuff in the guest room that doesn't really belong, that I'll have to figure out where to put. Forrest is down working on painting the kids' room (it's lookin' good!) and when that's dry, we can stain the wood trim (and put in stained trim around the base of the walls)...then we can finally move them back into their room! Last Saturday Forrest & Isaac put in the new windows, which is exciting. For the last week we've been sleeping on an air mattress in the living room and letting the boys sleep on our bed. It's cute to have them in there but I'm looking forward to sleeping on a real bed again.
Anyway, that's what's up with us lately and what's going on for the rest of this week. I'm getting excited to see my Louisiana family again--it's been so long!!!

I can't wait to see the boys' room; it sounds like it's going to turn out really well.

I'm running around the house like crazy today getting things prepared. Kyrie is "helping" a little too much and pretty much doubling my work. AHH!

You guys put new windows in?

Yeah, Daddy paid for them (hooray!) and they slide nicer, are more energy efficient, let in more light, and have good screens!

Hot dayum...nice. Although it takes away from the old-timey authenticity of the house, I suppose the resale value is higher now since most people prefer modern vinyl windows.

Well, yeah, but could you really see Daddy ever selling this house?

No, but you know... equity and property value and all that jazz.
