labor day and some stuff.

Labor Day we went to Josie's Cabin with our good friends the Oldham fam and the Sprouse family. We love these guys. Wish we could spend more time together. The kids did GREAT on the hike. ps. Dogs are NOT allowed  up there. We didn't know and brought Frank,
Anyone know where the 3 year old attitude comes from? Gracy decided just recently that she makes the rules lol. We had a little talk about the Marker tattoos. NOT cool sis. She did feel bad after, hence the red puffy eyes. I had such a hard time not laughing and holding strong as the disciplinarian. lol.
My cousin Cris and I helped clean Grandpa Bobs house yesterday, we were there for 8 hours scrubbing the heck out of that place. We could possibly be the meanest cleaners in the Basin lol. We were saved with Taco Tuesday from Cafe Rio.
Today was Gracy's first day of JOY SCHOOL! she spend a good 20 minutes "getting ready for school" this morning. Most moms are in tears about the whole growing up thing, but I just love watching her grow and learn, its really cool being a mom. Im so proud of my little girl! I cant believe she is already old enough for school. A few of us moms are getting together and trading teaching each week.  We got our curriculum off of Mothergoose.com. Its really an amazing program. Anyone looking to start a fun  Pre-school activity, this is a good one. :)  
By the way did I mention volleyball season is in the air? Cant wait to get our team back together! Fall is the best time of year.

Mini Project

Danny and I needed (well I needed) to do something new and cheap in the kitchen and I found these plastic tile sheets at lowes for a back splash. So easy to install and I think total it costed only $80. What do you think? PS, I know the power strips are pretty red-neck. The previous owner threw them up for a quick fix and we just havent gotten to them yet. lol. On a brighter note I never run out of outlets :) (Thanks DD)
