So, I am starting work on my parent's 25th wedding anniversary party. I am very excited. I wish I could be a party planner. I love throwing parties and decorating. It is also nice when its someone else's money you get to spend and not your own! :) I am trying to figure out if it would be lame to have an Elivs impersonator come for an hour during the party?! I know my mom would love it, I think my dad would too. Just not sure if it is 25th Anniversary appropriate?
Thoughts?

Change of pace
I really decided that I am ready to change gears. I am not a witty writer by any stretch of the imagination, and I lead a really boring life, but blogging might help me keep the sanity that is slowing creeping away from me! ;)
We have started our fall cleaning today. It is 71* in IOWA, in November! WTF? It is hotter than hell in the house while we are cleaning and my procrastinating nature or adult ADD, whatever I have, is keeping me from putting full effort into my jobs! Joe has power washed the siding and is going to go full force in Raeleigh and Caleb's room.
I cleaned the windows and even the tracks to the windows! Found some moss growing so I guess that means I need to be cleaning it more often!? I washed the walls where you could see little tiny fingerprints. It made me think of that poem for mom's. Where it says that those little fingerprints won't always be there, because the babies will grow up one day. I tried telling Joe that, and suggested we just leave them. You know, for memories. Yeah, he didn't really agree with me. Men, they just aren't that sentimental, I guess.
I cleaned the carpet a couple of days ago, and I am still trying to climb Mt. Laundry. I swear it is like that part in Fantasia where the little brooms splinter and make a bunch of new brooms. My laundry mates in piles. I also can't figure out how I keep finding swimsuits and dance outfits in the dirty clothes. The girls have been out of dance for two years and we haven't gone swimming in three months. Hmmm...
Well I can not put off helping out and doing my own chores any longer. I am off here to go help my husband.
