Another Boys Room Dilemma

Today has been a wasted day spent solely on my 3 sons bedroom.  On saturday, Larry bought a pair of dressers.  A much needed piece of furniture in the boys bedroom.  For the last year and a half, I have neatly piled all of their clothing onto 5 shelves of an old bookcase.  It was hard to keep this looking good when 3 pairs of hands were constantly pulling things off.  

So today, I thought it was going to be a simple day.  Merely me taking the clothes off the book case and putting them neatly into the new dressers.  WRONG!  I should have known my boys would have other plans.  They had glue, scribbling and etchings on the walls that I had the opportunity to scrub off.  After that, I found chicken bones, wild onions, and empty hershey wrappers hidden throughout the room.  Boy have these kids been having a party.

I have no pictures to share, just the visualizations from my words.  Mainly I did not take pictures because I refuse to finish cleaning their bedroom. There comes a point when they have to learn to do it on their own.  Last month, I spent 2 days cleaning up their bedroom.  I told them, I would never do that again and yet here I am a month later.  So, I am having to control myself and just do what I set out to do.  And that is neatly putting clothes into their new dressers.

Good for you! If my mother hadn't made me clean my own room I don't think I would have ever learned, how to do it.

Although, when I was younger she did supervise to make sure every nook and cranny was explored and de-junkified! Have fun!

Girls Camp

 This year, Savannah got to attend her very first girls camp. Here she is with Morgan, another first timer.  Not sure how Savannah would have done without Sister Skroski. She showed Savannah the ropes and really took care of her in my absence.  Savannah all excited to leave. I can only guess what these last few pictures are. Savannah had a great time and Larry was there as a priesthood chaperone so she was not completely alone. This summer was a summer of firsts for my girl. She had her first girls camp, her first youth Temple trip and her first talk in sacrament. Wow!

12 Wonderful Years

Saturday was mine and Larry's 12 year anniversary.  We enjoyed an absolute wonderful weekend together.  Larry was able to get off work friday at a decent time and did not have to go in on saturday.  And on Sunday, he did not have the early morning church meetings, so we were able to drive together.  As a matter of fact, we were able to enjoy a beautiful Christmas cantata on a gorgeous Sabbath morning. Friday evening we enjoyed  Don't ask me how I talked Larry Denzil into this, but I did and I enjoyed every minute of it. This was such a happy, girlie movie and I truly did enjoy every moment of it.  I love musicals and especially love music of the 70's.  I could remember so many of the songs as if they were new.  Listening to them in my dad's '73 camaro as he picked me up from the day care. Wow, how time flies. On saturday, I enjoyed breakfast that Larry prepared with the kids.  It was so nice to not have to cook.  Notice I did not say clean.  He did leave the mess fo
