What a weekend!!
We got ready for some extra-special guests to come and visit - our friends Jen and Scott Truman will be staying with us for a few days while their beautiful daughter Katie has heart surgery at U of M. She was born in ?March?, and is an otherwise healthy beautiful girl. We are very excited to have them with us.
Which really means we had to clean the entire basement, including dusting - ugh!
On Saturday, we spent some time with Andy's Administrative Assistant, Katie and her daughter Lia. Lia turned one and is A-dor-able. She had a tutu on, as did her uncle Pete ... hilarious!! (his was camoflage) Katie made Lia a red ladybug cake, so you can imagine her whole face (and belly, and arms, and legs) were red. So cute. I think Andy's already planning a 'red' cake for our first birthday party...
I've started cleaning out my dressing room - which will become the baby's room upstairs. It's Madelyn's old room, so it's coming full circle for us! Madelyn is our 10 year old neice who stayed with us for about a year while her mom, my sister, was in Iraq. She is such a joy to us!
Anyway, Madelyn and I painted two of the beige walls a bright shade of aqua! Which I think will be great for a baby's room - boy or girl. I'm planning to trim with dark brown... as soon as I figure out what to do with all my clothes!
Well, as always, nice to chat with all of you - I'm off to eat (shocking, right?!)... talk to all of you soon!
