Busy As Can Bee!

This last weekend was so busy, my head is still spinning! Tommy and I have done so much around our house, its unbelievable. It finally feels like OUR home now. Lets see....over the week, was spent fixing up the guest bathroom, and picking up paint for the guest bedroom. Thursday night, Tommy painted the guest bedroom, and fixed the broken door. On Friday while I was at work, Tommy hung the new blinds and valences in our bedroom and went and got EVERYTHING from my parents. I thought he was just grabbing the furniture from my old bedroom there, but no...he cleaned out everything. Mom was really ready to have everything of mine out of the house so she can turn that into her office/quilting room! So not only did I tons of stuff to do myself this weekend (like working in the flower bed, de-cluttering, cleaning, decorating, and washing clothes, not to mention Easter festivities on Sunday, but I had about 15 boxes to unpack!!!!! It got done though. Everything. Last night we finished up cleaning. Its such a good feeling to have our home feeling pretty now...feeling like our home. In my opinion I think everything looks pretty good. Tonight after work, Brittney will be bringing by the portacrib for Brayden to sleep on, thats if he isn't to big. If he is, then I am going to borrow Ailynn's bed, and all we would need is a mattress for it. I just hope they are all comfortable here. Also, tonight, we are washing cars, and cleaning baseboards and floors. I also have to make a wal mart trip tonight. We need groceries for our guests. Some of the meals planned are: jambalaya, white beans and rice and cornbread, roast, rice and gravy, salmon croquets, and maybe come boiled crawfish. Of course, mac and cheese, chicken nuggets, mashed potatoes, and pb & j for the boys. Erin said thats all they eat. We are planning a N.O. trip to the zoo, and maybe a good resturant there, and a seafood resturant. They will be here 8 days, so I want them to have good food, and a good time. I want them to have a good LA experience. Any ideas, please tell me! They are from PA, but LOVE the cajun food that I use to cook when we lived in NC. Any ideas on things to do, also let me know. The Diloretto family is flying into N.O. tomorrow night at 7:30. Tommy and I will be leaving straight from work, and hopefuly make it in time. Alek, the 3 year old, keeps telling Erin that "we will find a plane Mommy, and then we will go find Lele"! Haha! I love it! They have rented a car THANK GOD! We sure wouldn't have room in Mia the Kia! Plus they can just take off and venture out during the day while Tommy and I are at work....yes I am working on Thursday and Friday. I was however, able to take off on Monday-Wednesday of next week, of course this happened before we got the new boss. So yay for that! I would have hated for them to go through all the trouble of flying here for us to have to work the entire time. Of course Tommy can't take off though. : ( In other news, I have my training show with Lenee on the Thursday they fly out of N.O. The next day (Friday 4/25) is Tommy's banquet with the BRPD at the FOP hall on Greenwell Springs Rd. Then, on Monday (4/27) Tommy graduates! So yeah, we both can't wait for that. He has worked so hard. I am so proud of him. Always have been. Oh, and if ya'll think about him on this Thursday, he will be mased and beat up some more. I am so thrilled...not really. He just better not come home with another broke nose!

Hope everyone's week is going good. I wish I had a weight loss report, but I don't. : ( I have hardly even been eating, but somehow it won't go away. I am proud of Amber and Ashlie! Good for ya'll! Keep it up! The only things that are keeping me for feeling completely ugly is the fact that I have blond highlights, and I am tanning! Super excited about that. Tanned fat is prettier than pale while fat.
