1. I made incredible enchiladas last night! Usually, my opinion is that they are too heavy and feel like it's a blob of flavors in my mouth rather than light with distinct flavors. But I have mastered it! I called Slade during his lunch just to remind him how good I am. (Obviously I am a little confidence deprived these days if a few pans of Mexican food makes me feel at the top of my game. Sad, eh?)
2. Slade has agreed to finish off the master bedroom! This was a project that was on the back burner until Spring Break or summer (or another decade?) He and Dad hung the ceiling pieces Monday afternoon, with that being the only expectation. (I admit, I was willing to sleep in a bedroom with only a ceiling to be warm this winter) But once they got started, they think they can finish it off with a little (lot) of work. Slade asked me how I felt, if I wanted him to do that. I had to stay REAL calm and say, "Whatever you want to do" but inside I was jumping for joy!! The closet won't have doors right away, but at this point our "room" in the basement doesn't have doors so I think I am really moving up in the world. I should take a "before" picture this time.
3. Kennah is a big flirt. Not a ditzy "blonde" (no offense to blondes), "hahaheehee" kind of flirt. Just a "I choose to hang with boys" kind of flirt. Last week the girls' Brownies troop had a very cute, fun ice cream party at Little Scoops. (It's 50's ice cream parlor where they dance and play games and make ice cream sundaes. So VERY cute!!) Kennah, although she can maneuver a soccer ball down the field, isn't the most rhythmic person. She tried to dance but came back to the sidelines repeatedly, "This is a silly game" or "Why are they doing this?" etc.
But last night Avy's soccer team had their end of the season party there (brilliant idea if you ask me--enough pizza in crowded rooms!) There was a boy from Sawyer's team who had a sister on Avy's team. Needless to say, there was not a single complaint of silly or stupid games from Kennah this time. She had a grand time hanging out with Quade. Oh the perspective.

Upstairs bedroom, eh? You are moving up! :)
So can you share your enchilladas secrets? You know me, I always love a good recipe.
You for sure should take pictures. I am so glad we did with every nook and cranny of our old monstrosity. It is fun to look back and see how different it looks now!
