Trapped!

Today Natalie managed to get herself locked in the bathroom at my school.  She flipped the "occupied" dead bolt on the door and couldn't figure out how to open it.... needless to say there is not an override key either.   So, 15 minutes later after talking her down from her hysteria and crying I was able to get her to open the door.  I went home and made a "momma drink." (Malibu rum and CranRasberry).

Worn Out

I think we have been going too much... this morning Natalie fell asleep on the way to school and Riley fell asleep on the "noisy" bus this afternoon.  Needless to say, I put both girls to bed early tonight with plans to continue early bedtimes the rest of the week.

The girls' social calendar is keeping us busy as well.  We have 2 birthday parties this weekend too!  

Spring Break

This week the girls and I have been on Spring Break.  Here are some pictures of us during our week off from school.  We have sewn, cleaned and spent time with our friends.  Overall we wish we had another week to celebrate.

This is a picture of Natalie, aka "Pig Pen".  We don't know how she does it, but she finds dirt and tends to get it all over her.

We also tackled purging Riley's room and went to Goodwill.  This is not including the 2 trash bags of just trash and the bag of items she wanted to "store".

I attended a quilting class with my friend Danielle... here is the final result of the top pieced together.  I still have to quilt it and bind.... will post when it is all done.

Same quilt different angle. 

10 Commandments

The real reason that we can't have the Ten Commandments posted in a courthouse is this: 

You cannot post 'Thou Shalt Not Steal,' 'Thou Shalt Not Commit Adultery,' and 'Thou Shall Not Lie' in a building full of lawyers, judges and politicians...It creates a hostile work environment.
