April 6, 2009
So much for my everyday posting.......... I have just finished 2 weeks of stress, messy house, and frazzleness as I have had my first BIG order (17 aprons), and a weekend boutique (that I only sold 1 apron, and bartered another one). Wow, it feels good to not have that on my plate. I was sewing every second that I had (which made me really realize how busy I am with life and family!). Now Andre is behind me on my sewing machine making a skirt out of his old shirt (3rd one-maybe he is finding a new passion).
Life with the Hurst clan is always interesting. We have ended on a nice note tonight (although Nathan told Jessica that he wished she was never born! DRAMA!!!) So Nathan got to stay home tonight as I took the girls to dinner and played a game at home and Andre took Christian bowling/yogurt shack (DATES WITH THE KIDS NIGHT). We switched off so that Nathan would not be home alone-who knows what he would have done if we had left him. He might have called 911 on us just because he was mad at us!
TWO NEW THINGS ABOUT ANDRE: 1. He purchased a new toy, much to my dismay... a jet ski,,,,,,, it is beautiful and sooo much fun! We have enjoyed taking it out the last 3 weekends and plan to take it to Lake Mead in May with the Wallace's. 2. We are reading scriptures with the kids at dinner time and having family discussions. This is the FIRST time in 14 1/2 years of marriage that Andre is taking the initiative and making this happen! WEW!!!! Sometimes are little discussions last 30-45 minutes. It is really enjoyable when everybody is happy and willing to discuss. It is seeming to make a difference in the house!!!
Spring break starts this week and boy am I excited to have NO HOMEWORK!!!!! We are going to play, play, play!!!
