We had a super fun visitor today!!!!!

Sister Roll came to visit!

It was fun to show her around and talk with her.

It's been awhile since we last visited!

I am not sure how many kiddos get to keep in contact with their sunbeam teachers after so many years :)

I am so thankful to her and her love for little Elsie!

I sure could use her in our ward right now!!!!! ;)

I tried all morning to get started on painting the kitchen cabinets!

These kids just would not let me get anything done!

And it was so hot outside, so I couldn't just send them out, I felt bad!

Finally about 12 I got one cabinet painted. 

I think it still needs another coat.

But it is one on the end, so I put some ship-lap looking stuff on the end side of it.

I think it looks good :)

There will be more of that around the kitchen.

So not as much done today as I wanted......but maybe tomorrow.

Maybe.

Madi got the rest of the front rails painted.

I took the picture before she did the last one....but it is done, I promise!

She has done a good job and stuck with it.

I think it was a bigger job than she thought it would be....especially in this heat!

One side done, two more sides to go ;)

After Sister Roll left, I jumped in the shower and then took Elsie to PT.

We drove there and passed a thrift store...and it had our same type of couch for sale.

We were about 10 minutes early, and I was curious.

We have a rip in one of our cushions, and I am worried about having to replace it or all the couches.

So I checked this out....it needs some love and care, but it was $25!!!!!!!

So even if we only use it for a cushion replacement, that is so worth $25!

Anyway, I was excited.

I bought it, but we went back after PT to load it ;)

And it fit!!!!!

I wasn't sure if it would.

The lady who was helping me definitely didn't think it would fit!

Guess I proved her wrong :)

Elsie and also made a Fred Meyer stop.....and I stopped by ReStore again to look for a light for our entry.....

Still nothing.

I have an idea of what I want, but just can't find anything like it.

Guess I will just have to make it :)

So we came home and ate dinner with the kiddos.

Elsie had a rough time going to bed tonight.

She was a little lousy towards the end of PT too.

She seems really worn out.

I hope she isn't getting sick!

Getting to bed at a better time each night would certainly help!!!!!

Why is it so hard????

We will make it an 8:00 bedtime tomorrow for sure!
