The excitement builds

We can't wait for Mike to be home.

Mr. Miserable is full of smiles these days. I only have to say, "Zander, Dad will be home in 4 days," and the most amazing smile brightens his face. Gotta admit we are all beaming quite a bit this week.

After geocaching today, Josiah, Arielle, Nolan, Zander and I stopped in at the Card and Party shop. We ordered two big balloon bouquets and 30 more balloons. We'll pick them up on Thursday night. Friday a.m. is going to be busy with produce co-op and a plane to meet...but we plan to decorate early.

We're all getting VERY excited. Once again, I find it hard to sleep. I realized tonight that I'm NOT going to be able to bake the welcome home cheesecake in my oven if they don't fix it for another 7 days....ARGH.
