Just a few more days….

Our home visit is Monday. I’m not as nervous as I thought I’d be, even given the huge disaster that is my house at the moment! In prep for this home visit, I thought I’d try to conquer every single major project looming over our heads these last six months. I reoganized all my decade of sewing supplies, all my scrapbooking stuff, all my knitting stuff. It took hours! I finally gave up at the bins of craft supplies and am just storing those until I have more time. Not that I think it is necessary, just using it as an excuse to get motivated I guess! Of course now I’m worried we wont’ get it all cleaned up and wrapped up by Monday.
Today my goals are minimal - clean off my sewing table, my computer desk and hang a few pictures sitting here waiting for walls. Speaking of which….here is the end result of our kiddy canvas painting project
This is the wall people see when they walk through our front door. We will definitely have to adopt two kids as one will throw the whole balance off
What are your plans this weekend? We are hoping to see 8 Below now that the kids are mostly healthy but mostly we’ll be trying to wrap up this home visit prep stuff. I will be glad when it’s over and we get approved so I can start telling family of our plans

No plans, thank goodness! It’s been a terrible week, and I really just want to hibernate for a while and regroup, refresh. I love the kids’ artwork on the stairs! I am SO copying that idea when we get the house- I’m going to make the ntire stairwell a Grace gallery!

We’ve got taxes, a night out and band practice for this weekend. Nothing too exciting.
The stairwell looks great! I’m with Chel…totally stealing the idea!
