Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket Monday (how's that for a catchy title?)

We spent the day doing our "spring cleaning" - I know, I know - but the leaves are FALLING so I figure I can choose the season I want it to be. Today it's spring. I like to clean this time of the year.

I continued to work through the library. I gave it a good overhauling and it feels much more peaceful. Clutter plain stresses me out. I'm on a huge declutter campaign again. I'll take at least one big load to Goodwill near the end of the week.

We're really sitting pretty for Christmas. The presents are all bought. Some are still on their way...grrr. I'm cleaning and decluttering. I've begun getting extra bread and such in the freezer. I have NOT managed to get meals in the freezer so I will be doing more cooking while all are here than I'd planned. Even that, however, can provide special times of fellowship. It will all work.

Here are a few photos of the day:

Nolan took a drawing and a bag of "friendship soup" to his therapist. We'll not see her again until 2008. Wow.

Doesn't it feel good to have it all done. How cool that you even have time to declutter and organize this month. Kudo's to you!

We did so much decluttering and reorganizing this fall that we're actually doing pretty good. We only have 1 room that is a mess right now... WAY TO GO!!! Anything to keep busy and help the time pass quickly until your kiddos arrive home!

I have to say I sort of miss the minute by minute details of where the kids are at and what the weather's like, etc (LOL)! Not that it was any fun to be stressed like that, but it WAS fun to get all excited with you all. Is everyone arriving at the same time? Are your parents the others that are coming? I remember the time when you arranged their flights so they all met at the airport - a surprise to them all.

Sis: Just 4 more days at work and on the 5th day we will head your way.

Oh, what fun.

I'm having to forget this house and am concentrating on the computer type things I need to wrap up before vacation at school.

love/prayers

Cindy,

Nick, Krista and Bre arrive on Friday. Mom and Dad arrive on Saturday. NO suprise meetings in airports this year...and no red cross calls I pray....praying now for smooth flight connections.
