We've been spending lots of time working on the house. So far, we've painted the laundry room, and painted and replaced all the little fixtures in one of the bathrooms. It still needs a new shower surround and sink, but we have to save up for that. We have the ugly faux marble fireplace surround torn off, but nothing up to replace it yet. We've purchased garage storage cupboards and a kitchen table and lots of organization bins. We've unpacked about 3/4th of our stuff, and driven to the middle of nowhere Northwest edition to find a recycling center for a carload of packing paper and boxes. I've planted two raspberry bushes, some strawberries, and a few flowers so far.
I have no pictures of any of this. I'll try to take some soon. In the meantime, I took a break from housework on Friday to watch Tommy and Sam all day while Lesa and Colin worked with their movers to get into their new house. I had fun with the three boys, but I was sure tired by the end of the day. Then, the cousins saw each other again on Saturday when we all go together for a Dim Sum lunch and pie (his request over cake) for Mike's birthday. Here are some pictures of the cousins and the birthday boy:

| All the boys enjoyed playing in the dirt. I may not get that flowerbed back. |

| We spent some time at the park. Sam's favorite was the swings and Jack liked the merry-go-round. |
