Can I Get A WOO-HOO!!!

If you wonder what that cheering was it was DH and I cheering because the two kid's desks with a hutch and the bookcase are done! We're nearly at the end of the room re-do and it's the kid's turn now to fill the desks and hutch with all the things they've packed away in the closet. Our next part will be hanging things on the wall and purchasing little things like waste baskets. Let me know what you think..........I'll tell you what I think:Each kid has a desk WAY nicer than mine! My desk is two tables that have been placed into an L and my grandparent's old desk. Oh well, Ben's is so large that it probably won't be going with him. It will be a real bear to try to take apart to move. I've said maybe it can be sold with the house when it's that time.

DH said we should get desks that will be appropriate all the way to college cuz he's not gonna do this again.

Here's my sweet, neurotic cat named Annabelle. She is skiddish and weird but so sweet and loveable. She can be a little intimidating with her staring like this. She stares at DH and sometimes he gets spooked cuz she doesn't blink, she just stares at him.

Here is Handsome Sam. He's Annabelle's brother. He's such a handsome kitty. He's often found out on our back patio watching the world through the screen.

Here's my card using the new Magnolia stamp from Flourishes. Oh my do I love these flowers. They were watercolored using SU markers, and aqua painter on watercolor paper. Love the effect. The main flower has blue around it to highlight it. Dimensionals are behind each flower. This is from the Lilacs set.

I went to school today to get my furniture moved around and things taken out of the cupboards and shelves I put them in, in June.......Sometimes it just doesn't seem to make sense. We put things away in June only to take them out again in August. I however don't mind doing this because I guess another alternative would be to have all year school. I don't think I'm ready for that.
I am tired and sore so I'm going to find a cold pack for my shoulders and some snowmen to stamp for todays SCS challenge.
Thanks for stopping by.
Blessings,

I love their desks! Great colors too on the walls. Annabelle and Sam are beautiful. I have a 2 yr old very similar to Sam. VERY skittish, but a snuggler for me.
