This week was laid back, we enjoyed doing a little less. We still spent plenty of time outdoors. Infact, we cleaned up alot of the yard and garden. We harvested our first bunch of green beans. We need to get up really early one morning before it gets too hot and get the rest. I painted a wall (with the can of paint I had originally wanted for the front door.) We did a little toy shuffle and put all the kids' toys in their own rooms, cleaned out closets and put all our books on the big book cabinet we were using for toys. So we have tried very hard not to call it the play room, even though it's been called that for about 8 years now. We are slowly claiming back our space. It is now the library...with a tread mill and train table and a few other kids' things.
I had a great birthday thanks to everyone I know. I was lucky and almost forgot I was having a birthday...usually they haunt me for a while before and after the actual day. I got some new clothes at Kohls...thanks to my 3 handy co-shoppers. All of the kids had suggestions of which things they liked the best. We spent a little more time in the dressing room because we had to be fair and "at least try it on". Gene took the kids and I to Chili's for dinner Saturday. Jacob looks unhappy....only because we stopped to take pictures...supposedly he was hungry.
So, here we go....3 dozen and 1....look out, here I come! 40 please stay away for a little while!

Happy birthday!! You look so beautiful (in these photos and in real life).
I'm almost drooling reading about all your organization around the house. Someday I'll do stuff like that again. :)
It was so great talking with you on the phone the other day. I am so glad you had a good birthday. I love the picture of you. You look great!
