Ta Daaaa!

Well, here is a photo or two of our new furniture. It's much, much lovelier in real person. We still have a bit of arranging to do and some shelves to put up and new flooring to put in and also a big ugly entertainment center to do away with. But, our house is finally coming along. Hooray for us!

Tonite Ry is at High Council meeting and the girls are driving me bananas! They are so excited for tomorrow. They both have birthday parties to attend. So, part of today was spent purchasing and wrapping gifts. Also a little card making earlier tonite. I have just separated the two monkeys and gotten water, turned on quiet music for Aft, sung twinkle twinkle for Ella, and now I think they have finally drifted off. They are awfully sweet when they are lying so peacefully in their beds.

I am trying to watch a movie, The Painted Veil. I'm not sure about it yet, but have been looking forward to seeing it for a while now. I also checked out a book called The Lost by Daniel Mendelsohn. It was recommended by a friend. It's about the author and his quest to find the stories of loved ones lost in the holocaust. I am anxious to start it.

Tonite I made a new dish, Chicken Ragu with Farfalle. I found it in a Food Network Kitchens cookbook. It was quite healthy and everyone seemed to think it was okay. Maybe we'll add it to the binder.

Oh boy, Ry just walked in bearing gifts...Diet Coke! Bless him. He must have been inspired at that meeting.

Goodnite for now.
