A house plan that is! (witty, aren't I)
We went to see Shannon last night, our uber-talented, gorgeous and newly pregnant plan drawer (I'm sure she's a "draftsperson" or something equally official, but it just sounds weird to me).
Jason and I had drawn out the basic plan and we tweaked it with her and she's going to start drawing it up very soon! I can't wait. We also signed the papers for the lot this afternoon.
Jacob ended up staying home from school today.
Somehow the fact that none of us are morning people flew out of my brain a couple of weeks ago and I made appointments for the boys to get cavities filled at 8 am this morning (lovely way to start the day).
They were up late last night (because of all the plan drawing excitement) and Jacob was just an emotional mess this morning. And trips to the dentist are not conducive to jollying someone out of a cranky mood (trust me, he is his mother's son).
Apparently his foot hurt too (mmmm hmmmm....) so I decided to let him stay home with me for the day.
Jason is leaving tomorrow morning for 3 days of fishing and mushroom picking (he's on the fence about the mushroom picking, but his friend Troy insists once he finds one he'll "catch the bug").
While the cat is away the mice have a very pajama/movies/take out superhappyfunweekend planned. Jacob told me today that he thinks this weekend might even top Christmas in fun.
Speaking of superhappyfun, a few months ago I made this little minibook for Simple Scrapbooks and I received the issue it was in last week.
This is the issue (and know I'm somewhat biased - but YOU NEED THIS BOOK!)
(No. Really. You do.)
Here's the cover of the little book I made.
Now I must go and read the new Cathy Zielske book that I FINALLY got my hands on.
She is my Captain Underpants.
(you probably need to have spent time with 7-10 year old boys to get that reference).
And there you have it.
No one, and I mean NO ONE cracks me up like you do!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yay! Your stuff totally rocked this book. And is it sad that I'm familiar with Captain Underpants?

Yay on the new house plans and double yay on superhappyfunweekend (the day and the project)! I will definitely look for this issue next time I am at the store.

Totally LOVED your mini-book in there!!! YAY for you!!
And now, what exactly do they do with these mushrooms?! Maybe it's not so much the picking as the eating that is fun part! ;)
So excited that you've got signed papers and some plans! How exciting!!!!
