These past two weeks have been wonderful with Josh home, it's going to be sad when he goes back to work. We've had many things going on around the house. I've been busy working on projects. The first to be completed were Halloween costumes for the boys. Keegan decided that both he and baby Connor needed to be dinosaurs, so Keegan is a Tyrannosaurs and Connor is a Pterodactyl. I know that it's planning really far in advance but if I didn't do it now I know that I wouldn't get it done in time. Next on the list were special t-shirts for Keegan, Grace and Aiden for our trip to the show Walking with Dinosaurs (I wanted to be sure that the kids could be spotted easily in a crowd). Lastly, I made curtains for Keegan's oddly shaped bedroom window. I searched many places for blackout blinds that would fit his window but the cheapest i could find was close to $300! After loosing the patience to search for curtains that would work, and be cost effective, I went to the fabric store. And for the grand total of $15 we have a way to keep the evening sun out of his room. I love having the time to do these things!

We are also happy to share that we are on our way to having grass. The past three days have been filled with workers raking the dirt, spreading top soil, planting trees, and finally today hydra seeding. Now we just wait... at least next year we know that we'll have a yard to play in.

Love you all!
