We has such a blast the house looks like a clothes-cardboard-tool-dish bomb went off inside! We ate cake, ice cream and pizza all weekend. I managed to lose 2 lbs as strange as that sounds. First off, we went to see…
and had a great time! Amazing how brainy this movie was without talking down to us peanuts. You will actually feel smarter when you walk out! HOOT! For the record I am THE anti-fan of L. Decaprio and while I can’t say this performance won me over, I think he finally left air in the room for the other members of the cast. Its a start. Over-Actors Anonymous be praised.
Anyway, back to my exploded house…
Dillon decided that for his birthday we would do a DIY project in addition to going out to eat a few times and the movie thing. Dillon wanted to replace this
with this
So we shopped Lowe’s, laughed a lot about shelving, we planned the project, and took most of the weekend to get it done because we were cutting up so much! Even though we have yet to finish, there will be 3 drawer units across the bottom and the wires with get corralled. I don’t think task focused Jack has had a better time building in his life. Good Times!
I think we are finally getting the hang of this birthday thing, its more about being together and having a ball instead of how big the presents are or knowing exactly what the kids want. Really we had no clue what Dillon wanted, especially Dillon. It just grew from possibility and it was such fun to mess the house up this way.
Now, what to do with the Entertainment Unit in my Kitchen? LOL!
Happy Week Friends!
