IT CAME, IT CAME!!!

I don't think I could have been any more excited about getting a package in the mail if someone had told me to expect a block of gold. This package was just like that anyway, to me!
My shoulders are about shot after winding hundreds of yards of yarn over the last few months.

The wooden swift and yarn baller are a dream come true for me. How easy is this going to be to wind the yarn into "cakes" and have them stacked and just waiting to be utilized.
I had these precious items up and moving within minutes of getting it all set up. Its so easy and SO worth the price.

I love it!

Going Ons...

This is the beginning. What you see from (L) to (R) is the border paper before annihilation. Next is the top of the border removed. Followed by what was under the border paper. The entire process only took a few hours to remove all the border. Some scraping, some water spraying, etc. and off it came.


Our storm headed in yesterday afternoon. If you pull up this photo you can see the small hail.



The clouds were so low that it wasn't long before you couldn't see Cheyene Mountain.


Our biggest concern was getting to Cole and Carri's house before the snow REALLY started.


We arrived with Chinese food in hand before the snow and had a great time visiting with Anika, Carri and Cole. Miss Anika is the spitting image of her daddy just with red hair. She is just precious!


We made it home in plenty of time for me to finish the walls in the new guest room.

All ready for a guest(s)...

Easter

I spent Easter Sunday rearranging a room and moving Hunter in with Parker. I finally figured out that no matter how I tried to keep these two apart in the early mornings they were going to find a sneaky way to play with each other. So why not just move the two together. With David digging in his heels and telling me all the reasons to not put them together, I went ahead and made the move a reality. So now they are playing quietly at 6 a.m. without waking us up.

Hunter and Parker now have a true bunkbed. They will be taking turns with who gets to sleep on top. Hunter's going first. I ended up deciding that they had more room for play if we had them in the front room (without a closet) so they now have a great view of Black Forest out of their window. Also this room stays a bit darker in the a.m.
With this move, Parker into Hunter's room, it has opened up Hunter's room to be a guest room. Pictures will follow in a few weeks after I get the border paper down and do a bit of painting. I was able to coordinate the moving of a king size bed up to our new guest room along with getting Kristina to put together the bedframe for that bed. Then with everyone's help we decorated and finished the transitions.
