Ahhh, the simple pleasures of life...a baby's laughter, a new summer dress, a drive up the canyon, knobs for the kitchen cupboards.
I have had this on my To-Do List for over three years. I can't count how many fingernails I have ripped and chipped trying to pry my cupboards and drawers open. And finally, ...finally, Richard made my year by purchasing and installing knobs and drawer pulls. It has taken the sting out of the water damage caused by our little mishap a couple of weeks ago. Which, by the way, is going to be fine. No real damage to speak of that can't be covered up by a dishwasher or by closing the cupboard doors. You can see where the sink cabinet is a bit swollen still, but it's something that can be lived with. We were very fortunate!
Today was Wacky Wear Day, as voted on by the student council. Gavin came home from his meeting so excited about the fun week they had planned.
Tuesday was Quiet As A Mouse Day where no one could talk. If you did, you had to give up an M&M. The goal was to keep all your M&M's until the end of the day.
Today was Wacky Wear Day. As you can see, the kids were very wacky. Gavin buttoned two different shirts together and Allison wore Gavin's clothes. She considered that the extreme of wackiness. And their hair... Gavin declared boys were lucky they didn't have to wear elastics in their hair and Allison enjoyed twisting her braids in all sorts of different do's.
Tomorrow is Hat Day and Allison can't wait to wear her sparkly Princess hat from Aunt Jenny. Friday is Pajama Day.
