What's Been Happening

First off, a few creations from the past couple of days..............I got the idea for this cute card in the latest Paper Crafts magazine. I just thought that little bird was the cutest!
Michael being his normal silly self...singing 'Hakuna Matata...What a wonderful Phrase...'

And last, but not least....Alli with her 'Barbie Church' singing 'Empty hands held high....'

Let's see now, Monday was Chris' last day of classes & therefore yesterday was a LAZY day for us. Well, lazy in the fact that we all got to sleep in without having to be up & out anywhere early. I did take Ashley to the library, but that was about it....other than the usual stuff like laundry, etc. Clay on the other hand, had to head off to Lowes to get us a new hot water heater. The old one certainly served us well.........it was here when we moved up here 10 years ago & I'm not sure how long it had been here before then. But anyway, we realized the other evening that it had a leak in it. Just bad enough to make a HUGE mess on our back porch!! So, off to Lowes to get a new one. Of course, it ends up being right smack in the middle of supper preparations when he gets back...& as most of you know, nothing is ever just a simple fix in this old house...it always has to be a pain in the butt! Anyways, after much fiddling & fuming & running to the neighbor's to borrow this & that we had hot water again about 10:30 last night. I had a pile of dirty dishes from supper & all the preparations, plus mopping & cleaning up after Clay's mess. At least it wasn't too late when I headed up to bed...about 11pm. Then it was up & at 'em EARLY this morning as Chris had to be at school at 8am for final exams. He'll be there til 4:30 this afternoon. A long day, but once he's done, he'll be DONE for the year. HIs first year of college behind him! Yay!!
