Still here

Sorry everyone for my absence. I have been doing projects like crazy. I hope to have them all done soon, and I can put up pictures. I almost finished redecorating the girls room, making quilts for the girls for Christmas, and now we are fall cleaning because we just got a massive weight bench. I am almost done with the quilts, and just have a few small touches on the girls room left, and a lot of cleaning. I think the cleaning won't get done until after Christmas. The room we need to get to the most is the presents hiding room, so we can't just go in there for a few hours cleaning and expect to have the girls leave us alone.

So this weight bench, my MIL called me up one day saying her neighbor had a bench and was just giving it away because she didn't want to hassle with selling it. She then asked if we wanted it . I said sure thinking it was just a small thing and we could play around with it. The first load showed up and I was getting excited. There was only one thing there saying this is much more than just a simple bench. We went up a few days later and packed the rest of it up. This thing is massive!! I has a 2 inch clearance from the ceiling and has a pulley system to it. We are so excited!!! I will post a pic when I get pics of the other stuff.

I hope everyone is having a great holliday season. We got some lights up outside and are trying to figure out if we are going to spring for a real tree or not this year. The girls want to decorate the tree so bad that they don't want to wait. We did hit the Black Friday sales this year. The first time that either of us has ever done it. We had so much fun!!! We will have to see if we can do it again next year.

Have a great December in case I don't make it back before then!!
