Kansas City or…

Bust!

Well, unfortunately…bust!

A couple weeks ago, we had planned to head south to cheer the Horned Frogs on as they took on the Jayhawks…and more importantly to see my cousin and her family. Our plans coincided almost perfectly with the HUGE blizzard that dumped record amounts of snow on the middle portion of the country and a sick little nugget…leaving us stuck at home.

Determined not to let the wind out of our sails, we hunkered down and spent the weekend cleaning out the two ‘depositories’ in our house…our computer room and guest bedroom. All in effort to prepare for our littlest nugget’s arrival in May.

When I say ‘depository’…I mean every aspect of the word…both rooms had become the catch all place for every/anything needing a home or a place to be ‘out of sight’.

Just to provide a glimpse of the work that needed to be tackled…

I humbly admit that sorting through the ‘stuff’ took the majority of our three day weekend, but come Sunday…progress was evident as the computer room was empty and ready to become a nursery and the guest room had been unearthed and more representative of the place that Gigi and Papa like to stay when they come visit!

The nursery is still a work in progress, but just to capture the progress that’s been made I snapped a photo of it empty!!! The floor was in need of refinishing and C has been very gracious to take on that task…stay tuned for more progress photos.

All the cleaning left these nuggets chomping at the bit to get out of the house!!! So much so that one evening, after countless ‘lovely’ meltdowns throughout the day, we dropped what we were doing, got in the car and headed out for a family date. No, it wasn’t a trip south or attending a fun basketball game in a legendary arena…but it was a night out together complete with frozen yogurt and endless toppings of which these two (and C and I as well) were very grateful for!

Sweet A family…we will get down to your neck of the wood as some point…and hopefully for another basketball game!

But if we’re honest, I guess the progress made was a nice consolation prize.

Be blessed.
