Projects and Publicity

Happy Belated Mother's Day to all the moms who read my blog. It seemed to be another ordinary day for me - managing two out-of-control kids and helping my dear sweet husband get some over-due projects done in our house. And we all know that Weekend Projects + Attention Seeking Kids = a VERY Messy House! I am trying not to think about it so I can relax for a few minutes of stress-free time. This, I have decided, is my Mother's Day.

One project we got done yesterday was changing the light fixture in our living room. It was really bothering us so we found a great deal on one at Costco and happened to buy two, one for our living room and one for our bedroom. Only one has been installed so far....

The kids also worked on some art projects for their new play room. I would post pictures but they were shirtless and I don't want to expose my kids over the internet. My friend Sarah and I went to IKEA and picked up some super cute things to transform our family room into a play room. Again, no photos of it yet, but here is a hint.....Maya loves her new dress-up station. She is such a little fashionista. I love it!

Today was our last M.O.P.S. meeting so it is now official - I am the new Publicity Coordinator. The committee will be meeting a few times over the summer months so I will understand more of the ins and outs of the position before the fall semester begins. I will be in charge of maintaining the blog, writing/assembling the monthly newsletters and various other promotional work. Anyway, I am off to look through my stacks of promo material to prepare for a Ladies' Tea that I am expected to speak at this weekend, before I tackle my messy house that is.
