Almost there!

We got a lot of work done today. All of the kids' rooms are sorted out and nearly done being decorated. (I can't wait to show you those pics!) All the rest of the rooms are put together, and my scrapping section is organized and ready to use. I have about half the art and photos hung, and I have my sewing machine set up to finish making the rest of the drapes. In so many ways this house must have been meant to be ours. Things are fitting perfectly into spaces, and it is a really good feeling to know we are nearly done!

We had a big thunderstorm in the middle of the day. Lightning was crashing over our house, which always sets me on edge a bit, but the rest of the family thinks it is so cool. We got several inches of rain, and then it all suddenly stopped again. The weather has been one of the biggest changes for me here. There is so much rain! I love it, but I really could do without all the lightning that accompanies it!

Kara is coming up on Tuesday, and we are going to ride to the Tulsa show together. That promises to be a really fun roadtrip!

Jack and Jessica are on their way to court right now. They should be home tomorrow with finalized court papers stamped with a big "case closed" seal of approval... woohoo!

And I have a funny tale to share tonight. I was taking the kids out to dinner the other night and we were all debating on where to go from our list of not-too-many choices... McDonalds, KFC, or Subway. There was a general consensus that they all wanted McD's (yuck), and then Todd piped up in the backseat with, "I want Subway Eat Fresh!" We were all giggling... watch much TV Todd???
