Quick Update

Well....I was sick of not seeing a new post so I thought I'd drop a quick line. This time it really will be quick though. We actually have a lot going on right now. Dan's officially done hanging the drywall - Dad helped him finish when they came to visit this past weekend. Now he's onto muddin and sandin again....it's beginning to really look like a basement though and it's BEAUTIFUL!!!
Makayla continues to grow and keep us laughing. She's finally in her big girl bed and man does she think she's something special. (I suppose she has that right!) She had lots of fun with Elli (Mom and Dad were babysitting when they visited), the two girls played great together. A few 'mishaps' but that's certainly to be expected. I got lots of cute pictures that I'll have to post later - not in the mood to transfer everything to the computer right now! =)
Our visit with Mom and Dad was awesome as usual. I know that we all share the same feelings about family - - how blessed and appreciative I am to have people that care enough to take the time to spend it up here with us. Dad, bless his heart, just jumped right in to help with the drywall. I made sure to feed him his Ibuprofen every night and he seemed hunky dorey!!!! =P And Mom was well....Mom was there to hang out while the boys were busy and of course just chatting about little nothings is always special to me. We even found time to gather everyone up and take a trip to Moomers for some ice cream!
We're headed up to the cottage this Sun for the annual 'spring cleaning'. I don't know about the rest of the girls but I'm kinda excited. It must go back to that 'spending time with family' - plus it always feels good to air 'her' out!!!!
Well as I promised this would be short.....it kinda didn't end up that way. I'll post a real update later complete with pictures! Love you all!

Hey Tash! I'm SO glad you're still coming even though Megan isn't able to come! =) I was really hoping you'd still wanna come. You don't have to bring anything if you don't want to....if there's something you simply CAN'T live without then by all means feel free to bring it! No plans really...I figure we'll hang out, maybe do some shopping and/or sight-seeing, eat lots of yummy food and relax in our PJs with some movies after the kids are in bed! =) My number is 231-276-0381 if ya need to call for anything! See ya. Kim
