This Week!

This past weekend was a really good weekend! We got a lot of stuff done around our house. We're trying to finish one of the bedrooms in our basement before we have family out for Christmas. So far Brian has wired all of the outlets in the room. And this weekend we both put up the sheet rock for the ceiling. Tonight we may try to put in the insulation for the walls and this weekend sheet rock the walls.



We also watched our Cornhuskers almost pull off an upset against Texas. It was such a good game!! I can't believe we lost with a last second field goal by Texas. We also played with our pets quite a bit this weekend. We get so busy and I feel bad for them. So we made sure we paid extra attention to them. Here's a video of me playing with Sadie. We just discovered that she does not like her paws touched while playing with her toys. You can see her do her funny dance every time I reached for her paw. Also, look at my hair. I really want to do something different with it but I'm such a chicken. Anyone have a good idea for me? I was thinking about getting a loose spiral perm in it again. I don't know though!! Let me know what you think!



Sadly, the squeaker in her duck was torn out by her yesterday. Along with all if it's stuffing!

Today started out as a disappointing day, but ended joyously! We were the only school district from Salina to Lawerence that had to go to school today with all of the snow. Our superintendent received numerous emails and phone calls from irate parents and staff members so he decided to let us out early today. I think he had us come to school because he wanted more money. Schools receive funding based on attendance. And if you close school, there are no students there for attendance and you lose out on money. I hope that money was worth putting our lives in danger. But at least we were able to leave early and we also get tomorrow off!!! I can't wait to bake and scrapbook all day!!!
