Its about Time:








Well it has officially been over a year since we moved into this house and I finally just finished Timmy's room. I painted the football field stripes on his green wall. It has been calling my name for some time and today I went for it. I did it all free hand and it went really pretty fast. The challenge was keeping the kids away from the wet paint and off the bed that I was sitting on. Joya would have loved to help me, but I told her that today it was just a mommy project!! She understood but checked in on me several times to make sure I didn't change my mind and need her help. We also finally put up our wedding quilt in the guest bedroom. Again for a year the quilt hanger has been by the guest bed and today was the day to finish some long needed work! Tim also mowed the lawn for the first time ever! It looks so nice! I don't have pictures of the lawn, but I will post them soon!








Also a fun unexpected trip we took was last Friday. We went with Tim to Florence. He had to pick up some equipment and the whole time at the hospital was literally 20 minutes, just enough time for the kids and I to find the bathroom and for all of us to go (or be changed) and then find Tim. We got back int he car and headed north to Haceta Head Lighthouse. We ate lunch in the car facing the ocean and then hiked up to the lighthouse. We had a great time until the way back down to the car, Joya just lost it. We got to the car and she was crying hysterically, I felt her head and she was burning up! I gave her some Tylenol and she seemed to be doing a lot better! So we decided to go to the last Varsity basketball game, we got to watch the warm ups when Joya started throwing up! We then headed home and put the kids to bed. Joya and Timmy slept all night! She has acted better today and has eaten fine, but still ran a low grade fever at times today. Hopefully she feels even better tomorrow with no fever!!
