Enjoy your Fall day

Hello All,

Blogger was down yesterday so it wouldn't let me post. Boy have we had Internet troubles lately.

Madison's birthday party on Friday was great. She had 7 girls over and had a lot of fun with the American Idol theme. We borrowed a kareoke machine and they played and sang with that for at least an hour. Oh, you are wondering about the cake?.... well, I guess it was "acceptable" but for some reason the bakery decorated it vertically... instead of horizontally. I'm doomed. It was quite strange to have a vertical cake... didn't know I needed to specify. I hate learning the hard way.

This weekend has actually been a fairly quiet weekend... the definition is relative to each family... but by our terms it was quiet. Madison's Flames team lost 0-7 in the tournament against the #1 team. Could have been worse. Iowa lost... that was a bummer. I spent several hours scraping 15 year old wallpaper off a wall. That wasn't much fun at all... it came off pretty much measured in inches. Oh... I'm so done with wallpaper. Paint is the only way to go. Anyway, I have probably another 10 hours or so to go on that project. Finding those hours is the question.

Well, I guess that's all for now. Enjoy your Fall day!
Love to all, Leah
