Birthdays, Scarecrows and Clean Houses

Today Cameron turns 21. Wow. I can't believe it has been 21 years since we brought this cute little 8 lb. 13 oz. baby home from the hospital now he is 6'2" and well, still cute. Time sure flies!! He didn't come over but called me a couple of times. Mikaela and I left him a happy birthday message on his phone this morning.

Today was cleaning day. The girls actually cleaned their room. Of course, I did have to do some bribing. I allowed some computer access and promised a trip to the "Town Square" to see the scarecrows. The great thing about Summerville is that it still has some of the small town feel. Every year local merchants, schools and individuals get space in the square and make scarecrows. Some are scary and some are silly. Well uploading the photos is not going to happen right now. I will have to do that tomorrow. Apparently the blogger photo upload thing is not working right now.

I did get some cleaning done. I am not even close to getting the laundry done, but I have got a few loads knocked out. I did lots of vacuuming and dusting and the den actually is cleaned out and is comfy now. I had to let go of my favorite recliner. Alan got it for me when Lexi was born but it has had it. Today I let it go. But my den looks so much better. I cleaned off my desk and dusted the living room and the den. Alan did some more work on the sunroom. We took a side trip to Home Depot, the kids were not thrilled about that. We got some trim and door knobs for the french doors going from the dining room to the sunroom. They look nice.

After dinner Mikaela, Alan and I watched "Wild Hogs". Very funny!!! I wouldn't recommend it for the kids (lots of language) but very funny. I can't wait to get "Evan Almighty" on DVD. What a great movie!!!

Tomorrow is church and Awana. Sundays are busy but we love them!! I will try to post the pictures tomorrow.
