The Big Announcement!

Okay, so you know I'm not preggo. And I guess the three people that read my blog already know that our family has received it's biggest blessing ever--Merle got the job that we have been praying for for 11 years. I can't belive that for the first time ever Merle is going to actually work in the same town we live in!!! All glory to God for this!

And, I need to let you know that the remodel is still NOT done. We are close, but not there yet. We still have one more coat of paint and we need to seal the grout in the shower and on the floor. I found a gorgeous mirror for 79.99 at TJ Maxx. Don't you love that store?!!! And the mirror is huge. I will have fun shopping for some prints for the wall, maybe even a piece of metal work would be pretty.

I have a funny Cocolicious Chanel story. So we spent $300 yesterday cleaning the carpet from where she's ruined it by peeing on it. I kept her out all day yesterday and all last night. I let her in this morning (because you know it was freezing in the garage!) and she hadn't been in the house 15 minutes and peed on the carpet. What do you do??? I really want to get rid of her but Merle says it will break the kids hearts. I think they could care less. Carter likes to DDT her (for those of you wrestling fans you'll see the humor in this!) and Collin likes to put the beat on her when the mood strikes him.

I saw my buddy Alison today. She and her hubby came to Dazzle Daze. How fun!! And Becke kept the kids today for me--thanks girl!!! I'll bring you payment on Sunday--is cash acceptable?!!! And Atrain--where are you??? Are you out there?!!! If I know you, you are in the process of redecorating something or moving pictures around...maybe even cooking some kind of delicious meal. Save me some!
