Mexico Trip

Here are some pictures from Rick's Mexico Trip...the first ones are of the house that the team built. They were in a little town on the outskirts of Tijuana. Sorry, the pictures are out of order!

The showers - and the reason I wouldn't make it on a trip like this!



This little girl was part of the family they were building the house for.



This was the cement slab they poured for the foundation.

Little Artist




Ella loves any and all kinds of art! She had so much fun painting at the easel!

Children's Museum






We went to the Children's Museum twice last week. Each time Ella had so much fun and fell asleep before we were even out of the parking garage!

Much More Productive

Why is it that when Rick is out of town I am so much more productive and get so much done?
He comes home tomorrow and I am so excited, I'm giddy! He has been missed greatly. As a little surprise for him I redid our bedroom. It turned out well and I can't believe how little I spent on the whole project. I combed through the clearance section and found a new comforter, euro shams and regular shams. They weren't supposed to go together, but I think they work well. I paid $8 for the new curtain rod and tomorrow I go find some curtains. The lady at Home Depot mixed the wrong paint for me, but I'll get over it!

I was also able to deep clean the bathroom upstairs, the kitchen, Ella's room and am hoping to shampoo the carpet tomorrow! Maybe I'll even get some scrapbooking done!
