this one's for my sister...

Ok, so last night, my beloved Trish informed me that she's been checking in daily & ther have been no blogs since Tuesday...& I needed to get busy...so...this one's for you Trish Ann! :) I got so lucky in the in-laws department...got 2 great parents who have always made me feel like I was a part of the family...even when I was just the girlfriend...& they try WAY harder than my own parents to be involved with our family...I'll never be able to express to them how much it means to me that my children have an amazing set of grandparents...it's so what they deserve!!!! & I got 3 amazing brothers who would do anything for us in the world...& 2 new sisters...who are just as much fun as the sisters I've known since I was born...& I can talk to them about the fruitcake parents I've got & they don't try to defend them...they just listen! So...I WIN in the in-laws department...just thought I'd let you all know!

Last week was yucky at work...Friday was amazing though...just a really long day...but I had this SUPERB coffee in the morning so my day started great! It was the best end to a long week at work a girl could ask for! The Thompson fam was in bed early Friday night...we were beat!

Saturday, I was still reeling from 3 nights of less than 3 hours of sleep...so when Kate went down for a nap- so did Mommy! Brandon is just the sweetest boy in the world...he'll watch Nickelodeon in his room until Kate starts waking up & come wake me...I really needed that! Saturday nite, Barry & I dropped the kids off at Red & Steve's house & went to the Depot by ourselves for a few hours!

We got paint for the bar & the bathroom in the bar...Mai Tai & Dark Secret...sound like perfect paint names for a fabulous bar!! They're red & black to the rest of the world...they ROCK!!! I absolutely love them! We picked up some lamps for the living room & disagreed over flooring...I do think we're going to take Red's advice & do linoleum in there...easy to clean!!

Yesterday...Mommy & Daddy were up early & were like tornadoes in that house...Brandon's room got cleaned from top to bottom...it's gorgeous & I've threatened to throw out the next toy on the floor! We finally dug out the box of pics from the move...yes, you read that right...& we've hung up a few! Moved junk out of the basement...threw most of it out...haven't used it since we moved in...so, we don't really need it! Found all of the fun barware we were given at our shower...finally a room to use it all in...I can hardly wait!

So, Spring Cleaning at the Thompson house is well under way...& it's going to make life BEAUTIFUL! We're really getting things done much faster than we thought...it's coming together so great...can't wait until you all see how much we've gotten done! & until we can have the first drinks in the Lounge at Club Thompson!

Have a great week!

Hope you feel all up to date Trish...! :) Love you to pieces!!!
