Lobor Day Weekend......

Well this weekend started out on Friday with Miss Maggie having a photo shoot at Target so I could document her chubbiness to have it on record for the rest of her life. It went OK....she was not as smiley as I would have liked but isn't that always the case? As soon as it matters and you want them to they don't. But we got some good ones nevertheless. Saturday was work day around the Morris house. We were doing a little room swapping project to make a more spacious playroom for the girls. We (as in me and Wyatt) moved 2 bookshelves, 1 upright piano, and a very heavy buffet like piece of furniture from one room to another. I also assembled some new cubbies/shelves for the playroom so everything is not just in one stack along the wall. Then on Sunday after church we went to Lowes and got 2 new light fixtures to be installed by my man-be-handy husband. Who knew??? It was surprisingly easy and quick. All I had to do was assist in holding things and handing tools. And today we hung some things on the wall. So we have accomplished alot this Labor Day weekend. Below are some pictures to show off our hard work.

The new shelves....


More room to play!




They are going to LOVE it!!



Our new "sitting room", "reading room" ......(please excuse the black chair it is being replaced shortly just needed 2 chairs there).



The bookshelves. Please excuse the naked window and bad lighting curtains coming soon.



The piano.



The new bathroom light!! Wyatt also painted this room while I was in Memphis for 2 weeks.



New "sitting room" light. This replaced the ugly, gold, out of date but spray painted silver, chandelier left by the previous owners. The sitting room is what would be the formal dining room if we needed a dining room.

So we are getting ready for this week. Tomorrow Julia goes for meet the teacher day. Her class is bigger this year and she had 2 teachers instead of 1. She is really excited. The first class day is Thursday. Saying a prayer for our family down south. Stay safe and dry (if possible) while riding out Gustav. Have a great week!
