He's Perfect.

Ben saved me. I was having the most horrible week. The kind where you feel like you will never get it all done so why even try. I had cleaned out the kids drawers and rooms and found 5 loads of laundry I didn't know I had, on top of the other 6 loads that I was already behind. I had three Thanksgiving dresses to finish, two for my girls and one for a friend, a crochet sweater to finish up for Lily and Iris, cooking to do, a walk I had promised the kids, and I really wanted a bath, and he saved me. He took the day off from work, and took all the clothes and two kids to the laundry mat, while I started sewing. When he came back he helped me fold every stitch of clothing and put them away. He said that the laundry mat is a very scary place, they fight over washers and dryers there! I had no idea, I thought it would be empty except for a few little old ladies or something. I guess I have never really thought about it before now. But WOW! He did all that for me! He said he wanted me to have a stress free Thanksgiving. Oh....did I mention he cleaned the kitchen and brought home dinner? I love him! I had everything done in time for Thanksgiving, stress free. Thanks baby, I love you too!

Oh, my gosh, is he ever a keeper! (And cute, too--lucky you!) I hope that you had a wonderful and restful Thanksgiving.
I never knew the laundromat was scary, either. Maybe 'cause it was a holiday week? I can see it now:

Old Lady: (brandishing a Spray N Wash Bottle) Step away from the triple-loader, and no one gets hurt!

Glad you both survived the laundry, etc.

What a fabulous man! I have to be pulling out wads of hair before my husband will do anything. JK. Anyhoo. I can't believe you have never been to a laundromat. They ARE kinda scary. He is brave. Little old ladies? They ARE the ones fighting over the machines!

New triple bunks.

Ben designed new bunk beds for the "girl's dorm" and "boy's dorm" in our house. We LOVE them!! We are almost done with all of the work, just a few loose ends left to tie up, but I couldn't wait to show off his handy-work. This is the girl set. We stained them with colored stain and we really like how that turned out. It's almost the color of cranberries. I still need to paint the boards that are attached to the wall. I'm going to paint them the color of the wall so that it looks like the beds are floating. :)  This is the boy set while still under construction. We ordered new bunk mattresses, but they haven't come in yet. I will show you guys pictures when they are completely finished. We stained these green, it looks like the color of bamboo. The kids LOVE these beds! And oh the space we have now! I'll be back soon with finished pictures! xo, Sam If any of you make beds using these plans could you send us a picture? We ...

The Handmade Dress Infomercial: Do you suffer from scrached DVD's?

Do your children cry when they can't watch their favorite movie because of irritating scratches? Are you sick of paying good money for movies that are scratched minutes after you take them from the case? Do you often wish that we could just go back to VHS because you could leave them out in the rain, bring them in and use them for a coaster, and then let the baby throw it for fun and it would STILL WORK!? ME TOO ! . We have struggled for years with scratched movies that were no longer watchable, but not anymore! We have finally found the secret formula to rid you of this nasty little problem forever! . Crest Kids Toothpaste! YES, that's what I said! Kids toothpaste! . A few months back I heard some place that toothpaste would take of scratches and I tried it and it didn't work, then the other day out of pure desperation I tried it my way. IT WORKED! So I decided this kind of news could not be kept secret, I have to tell the world! So I ...

The Family Closet

It's another gray day so the pictures aren't great, but I wanted to get these posted since I have a few minutes. The family closet has changed my life people!! It has taken my most overwhelming chore from crazy to totally doable. We had to start in the laundry room because that is were most of this process starts. These storage racks went on sale for 69$ right after Christmas and we got 3. We also got several of the $3.50 Steralite clothes baskets because they fit side by side perfectly. In the laundry room I now have baskets labeled (Whites, Towels, Darks, Reds & Purples -we have a lot of those!) to separate clothes into, baskets marked "Clean" for clean clothes, a place for storage (extra dish cloths, table cloths, socks that need a mate). The laundry room is much less intimidating now, I actually like going in there! I also now have room for my drying rack in here! I painted a huge henna design on the wall to pretty it up a bit. :) The Caffee sign ...
