Proposal done.
Have been looking forward to saying those two words for weeks now.
And I have absolutely no plans for the weekend (I love that). Started in on some Spring cleaning (love that too), rented a couple of movies, picked up some sandwiches and frozen yogert for dinner (yes, I love cleaning, but hate cooking). Might just even do some scrapbooking tonight if Annie quits fussing.
Friday flowers arrived this morning courtesy of Josh Downs and he was able to make a quick call home too. Felt soooooo good to hear his voice.
Coley came into my scraproom/office/closet while I was working this afternoon wearing nothing but his underoos (that's what happens when I get busy working - the poor kid never even gets dressed) to put on a magic show for me. He had a whole bunch of marbles and toys in his hands and said "now ladies and gentlemen, I will make all of these toys disappear", so he took the toys and marbles and held them behind his back - he held them there for a little while - I could tell he was thinking, so I began wondering whether or not he was going to be able to pull off this little feat - then he drops all the marbles and toys town the backside of his underoos and throws his hands up in the air with a proud "ta-da" (underwear drooping from the weight of the marbles).
So dang funny.
My brain is still totally fried. Will be a good day tomorrow though.
How gorgeous is Coley and very sweet and funny!!

Oh my now I am laughing so hard tears are rolling down my face! I could just picture it.
And speaking of spring cleaning I just took everything out of my scrapbook closet and WOW I don't know how it all fit in there. Currently I am going through it all and getting ready to donate lots of it so I can get more organized.
Take Care

Your Coley stories always remind me of my Lucas. So funny, those little guys. I too hate to cook, especially when my husband isn't home......who am I kidding......I don't like to cook even when he is home. :)

Wow, Karen-you must really have your hands full being at home by yourself with the kids--I only have two and they make me very tired--lol! Your Cole stories are so funny~
Where in the world can I get your new rubon swatch book with all the colorful rubons online? Can't seem to find them.
Thanks (and hang in there...)
