Sunday Projects

Today Abby started working on her Wisconsin Project. It has to be a project about something to do with Wisconsin history. Abby has chosen to do hers on the History of Badgers Women's Basketball at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. She is making a basketball court out of popsicle sticks and researching the history on the internet. Today, she started the court construction...~~~
A few weeks ago, Abby was fortunate to inherit a bedroom set from Grandma Deb and Grandpa Ken--and Grandpa Edward! Kind of a long story, but there was some switching, furniture moving, and trading, and now Abby has a really nice full-sized bed in her room, complete with dressers! She picked out a comforter set on line, and she is all set! The best thing about the big bed, is there is plenty of room for her and the two big, hairy, stinky dogs...

Jamie ran to Eau Claire today to pick up a mattress and box spring for Andrew. Poor Andrew had been sleeping on a twin mattress on the floor ever since he moved into Austin's old room. When Austin moved into his new room, he took his bed with him, and Andrew didn't want his old bed with the ladder anymore--that went to storage. Andrew and I had found a headboard this week, and I had picked up some bedding for him a few weeks ago--the only thing missing was, well, the BED!
~~~
Andrew was pretty pumped to have his new bed all assembled and ready to go for bed tonight--and look! Lots of room in his bed, too, for the big, hairy, stinky dogs!
Next thing you know, those hairballs will be taking over MY bed...

What do you mean, going to be in your bed. Rumor has it that they already are when you are not there?
