I started packing the other day. I figured I might as well get started. For obvious reasons I can't do a whole lot yet.... these are the books from our bookshelf and other random type things.
"Will, are you ready to move to Tennessee??" "YES" he squealed. (or he just like banging on the box...)
This July will be my 10 year anniversary from graduating college. applause, applause... thank you, thank you. So to celebrate I decided to finally frame my diploma. Mom actually matted it for me about a year ago. I finally ordered a frame about 3 weeks ago and Thursday was the day that I bought the glass. Actually, it still needs hanging wire... but at least the main part is done.
To try and help ease the boredom.... I tried making coconut macaroons..... They didn't work.
This was also the day that Anna and I sat in silence on the phone before realizing we had nothing interesting to talk about and hung up.
Friday got a little better when that evening I went to church to help with some canning for food storage. Really bad storms came though Mississippi and there were lots of tornadoes north (in Jackson) of here. It was fun to can food and the camaraderie with everyone was really the joy. I did that again Saturday morning, finishing up what we started Friday night. Amy was sick Wednesday through Friday (just a little cold) and Will got it Saturday. Lee stayed home from church with him today while Amy and I went. She wore her ladybug dress today, but she wasn't in a picture mood before we left. I always laugh as how she carries her scripture bag- across her chest like this. Whatever works!
That's about it for the excitement of the last week. This week will be much better as we get to head to GA!! Woohoo! We'll make the rounds with everyone and then head back and wait a few more weeks before we do it all again. It's about to get crazy!! (thank heavens. I don't like boredom!)
Those are sorry looking macaroons. I didn't know they were tricky to make. I have a friend who makes wonderful ones, I'll have to get the recipe from her. It's never too early to start packing, because those boring weeks never last forever and time always runs out. Hope you have fun at moms. Love always.
ReplyDeleteyeah our phone conversation was pretty pathetic! lol cant wait to see you all this week though!
ReplyDeleteMe too! Yeah, the macaroons made me laugh. What the heck happened? Never mind- Harry's makes great ones I think I'll get some there. See you sooooooon Yippee!
ReplyDeleteMaybe you can learn to make good macaroons by June. I think we all like eating them. Hope Lynn gets you the really delicious recipe a friend of hers has. I'll try bugging her about it. The dress looks cute on Amy but she sure did have a sad face on her. She looks much cuter with a smile. Love to you all. Gram.
