Weekend Update

We had company yesterday. Gary's parents came over to cut Gary's hair before he leaves.
He is going to Vegas for 4 days for a conference for work, probably a lot like Steve did for his job. They brought the girls a cute outfit each, and I made a really good (vegan) potato leek soup.

Outfits from Papaw & Gigi

When Gary went to leave for the store, he found out our car had been broken into. :( No radio etc. When he was talking to the police, the neighbor came out and said that a few houses a way, a home had been broken into. It really is a bummer, because this house and this area really felt like a haven to me. I like it hear, but this dramatically increase the chances that we will be moving sometime in the next year, especially if Gary gets offered another store. This probably sounds greedy, but I told him I don't want to move again unless it's an enormous raise!

Earlier this month Gary bought me my belated Christmas present, which was a Bob Ross painting set and some canvas boards! I didn't take any pictures of the ones I've done, but I took a picture of the one Willow did with me! Was fun learning, and for an 8 year old it's pretty good! Still not dry though....10 days later...

Willow's first oil painting

And I've done two more besides that. AND I want to do more, but we have no more space to dry pictures! And the paint is expensive too, so if Willow's want to do any more with me, it's going to take an investment. I am really enjoying it, but someday I will learn not to start hobbies that I can only do during nap time or after bed...right?

We love you :) I have a bazillion more photos I could share, maybe a Yahoo messenger day is in order?
