Busy girl!
So what did you think of the AI shocker last night?
Chico and Kat are so cute!
WOW! You really have been busy. I want new windows in my house too, but it is expensive. Our windows just let in too much cold/hot air. I think it would really reduce our gas & electric bill.
Boy, it's been busy on the lane! Hope you get some rest this weekend.
The end of the school year, yes, is even more busy than usual. It is so much fun though to see those kiddos come up with their ideas.
QMM
Dani, did you pick up your award from my blog?
I was beginning to wonder where or how you were doing, Dani. I see you are a VERY busy lady!! Love the pictures!! :)
Busy- Busy-Busy!!! I don't watch American Idol. But I did happen to see the very ending...
Hope your doing good.
How fun that is what I have to look forward to as Allikaye grows - helping her with school projects!! I love how you took pictures...proud mommy! And yay for American Idol!
Love those costumes!
I hope you show before and after pictures of the cabinets.
Whew, wee! You, HAVE been busy!

Aww...Look at Chico! He looks so proud all dressed up in the second picture! Both Katherine and Chico have done so well this year at school.
The project turned out great ~ good work from both you and Katherine!

Hi Dani
Life on the lane has been full, but it sounds as though it has been the good kind of full - where you get jobs done and see results for all your hard work.
High five's all round for Katherine and Chico. A cake and icing coral atoll is a super idea. That would have been such a fun mother daughter project.
We have also been busy doing odd jobs around our house as well. It is satisfying getting a job done, especially one that you have been thinking about for a while.
We just heard on our news this morning who the new American Idol is. I can't say I have been following it, but I did think of you as I was watching the story.
Dani, the other day while I was at the shop I stopped dead in my tracks as I spotted Reese Cups (I hope that's how you spell it). I was soooooo excited. I have used every ounce of restraint and not yet purchased a bag, but i am sure they will find their way into our house sooner rather than later.
I hope you have a wonderful weekend.
Lots of love and big hugs
Elise.
Well done to Kat and Chico!!! I laughed when I read the post about him buying you the diet coke for caffine lol!!
Hope you have a wonderful weekend my friend!

Boy Dani ~ you have been very busy and I thought that my life was a bit mad!!
Love and big hugs Tab XXXXX
