Sunday

I missed writing down my thoughts yesterday, and I did think about them, just didn't make it to the computer, with Jeff on a campout, paino lessons, playdates and errands all taking over. I'll just do double today and call it good.

1. a clean house- I am the first to admit, I'm not as organized as I would like to be. I do however like things sanitary. There are two different types of people, those who like it to be "organized" and those who like it to be "clean" Some people are both. I am the latter, and would like to incorporate more of the first. We are doing some reorganizing and I of course have new goals to keep it that way always!!!
2. lots of storage space- In this house we have more storage than ever, in my attempt at #1, I will try to use my storage space better
3. Ava's tongue- it is long, cute and she likes to show it off!
4. nice phone calls from people-I received an unexpected phone call that was genuinely nice and I thought about it for awhile happily.
5. writing thank you notes. yes, I was brought up good and proper to write thank-you notes, I got to write a few today. It gives a nice feeling of satisfaction that only showing gratitude can.
6. fabric stores- yesterday while Jeff was on his campout and Ty was at a playdate, I took the girls to a fabric outlet down the street...ooohhhh, I love it. I love so many different prints, I could never even incorporate them into my house, but it's like a candy store for me
7. www.houzz.com- my friend told me about this, and Jeff and I had fun just perusing it last night and picking out what we loved.
8. my brother- he made an appliance for tyler's mouth yesterday, I hope it works, he is too kind.
9. this computer- I spend WAY too much time on it, but it does do good things, so I'll just leave it at that.
10. my new camera- Jeff finally decided he wanted a new dslr camera (which is funny, because I've been telling him we need one for YEARS now, but he finally played around with my Dad's and he realized how cool they are) so, I took a few shots of Ava today. It's fun. I know nothing about photography, except that the dslr takes the shots almost instantaneously, so it's much easier to get good shots of children, so I'll be having more fun with that to come.
