A Whole Lotta Nothin'

For those of you that might possibly read this and want to know about my mother-in-law, she came home on Friday!! She was very anxious to get home and begin her real recovery. Her husband is her biggest cheerleader and really helps her do whatever she needs, but encouranges her to be as independent as she can. I called yesterday to check in and they had just finished her "PT" which was going up the stairs. She sounded tired, but GOOD!! I think her attitude is changing. Last summer they bought a really nice RV and I think getting better so they can get out on the road is what is keeping her going. We camped with them once last summer (we were in a tent) and she really loved watching the boys. Zack learned how to ride a two wheeler right in front of her and I think that is a memory she really cherishes and she is looking forward to making many more! Thank you all for your prayers!!

I have been busy with school. Things have not been too bad, but with education courses it is a lot of projects, so about mid-term I am waiting for it all to hit the fan! I'm trying to stay ahead of the game, but when you have professors that don't even know their real game plan that makes it a little hard.

I have also been doing a little redecorating! We have lived in this house for three years and we have done some major projects. New countertops, backsplash, tiling in the bathrooms, light fixtures, painting, etc. So we continue on... We (and I mean the "royal we" as I am not allowed to pick up a paintbrush due to my wandering brain) painted two rooms last weekend. I will post some before and after pics. when we finish getting everything hung up.

I'm also working on my "wall of fame". We have a back staircase and since we bought this house I have wanted to fill the back staircase with pictures of our family through the years. I have been working on getting the right pictures and the frames and now all I have to do is hang them...should I be trusted with a hammer???

So that is what I have been up to... Michael and I are beginning to plan our summer. I will be in classes, but we are doing a big beach trip with my family and some camping adventures!! This warmish weather has made me ready for SUMMER!!!! Have a great Sunday!
