Eden loves to swing. She yells 'whee'...........Whoo Hooo! My house is clean and we're completely unpacked!
Al and I spent this past week getting ready for the Ice Cream Social & Open House for the congregation. Thinking I would kill 2 birds, I deep cleaned the house so that I didn't need to worry about anything next month before baby #2 comes along. To avoid the ladder, the 105 degree heat & the elbow grease, I hired window cleaners & I can again see out my windows. :-) I got the last 6 boxes unpacked, and Al hung an entire two walls worth of pictures and cleaned the garage. The curio cabinet has all the china and 'special' stuff in it, and I even got 2 scrapbook pages done while the carpet dried from using my new Bissell Carpet Cleaner. Not to mention the nursery is pretty much set up, minus the things I'm hoping Dad will put together when he gets out here. Needless to say, it was a busy week, but we managed to find time to play, as well.
The Ice Cream Social was fun, however hot at 100 degrees. The kids played in the hose, and the adults hung out wherever the shade was. I think we had about 50 people throughout the day. People seemed to like the trimmed trees and newly mulched gardens with blooming flowers. Everybody was pleased with the new windows & the newly remodeled bathroom, as well as other minor improvements that have been made throughout the house & garage. We're sure happy with how well maintained this place is!
