Stay-cation

:: The Caffee children were taken to be spoiled and coddled at Granny's house.
:: The mama and daddy are to stay at home ALONE.
:: The rules are: It's just like vacation, mama don't cook, mama don't clean, and mama and daddy get to sleep as late as they want.
:: No phone, no email, no business....unless they want to.
:: The only things mama and daddy eat will be things that WERE NOT PREPARED BY MAMA!!!! Glory halleluiah!!
:: Mama finally gets to see all of those movies that people are always saying "What? You've never seen that? Where have you been?!" about.
:: Daddy gets to google until his little heart is content, and mama gets to catch up on all of those blogs that she never has time to read.
:: Mama gets her very own eight pack of the cute little bottles of her beloved Diet Sunkist!!!! Oh, and Dove Chocolate!
:: Daddy gets a whole box of Chicken in a Biskits.
I'll be here show-doggin on the couch until Monday evening.
I like stay-cation. It pretty much rocks my face off.

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

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
