If we are home on a Saturday it is a work day and then a play day. I am trying to get my kids to learn that we work before we play. Yesterday, we worked on the basement. John and I finished insulating so it is now ready for
sheetrock. We are only finishing the family room and the play room for right now. It costs
alot - more than we thought. We will probably
sheetrock ourselves and then have some professional mud and tape. Although my husband is a professional in all that he does we just don't have time - I am
impatient and want to have a princess party for Emmie downstairs for her birthday. Well we'll see how that turns out. I told John when we get the basement finished then we can get cable. Yes, I know what you are thinking, "holy cow, no cable". Actually it is great. The kids love PBS and there are no commercials.
Emmie picked Jason up and put him in her lab and said "take picture, mom." Emmie is really sweet with Jason; at least she has good intentions. Emmie loves Jason because he will play Barbies with her and Will won't. He actually likes to chew on the squishy barbie legs and eat some of the clothers. Emmie and Jason are 25 months apart.
Emmie wanted to print pages off the
Internet and color. After a long day and way past a reasonable nap time I was trying to keep her busy so that she would not fall asleep.
Recognize the coloring pages? You might if you were four years old in 1985. Yes, they are She-
ra coloring pages. Emmie is
fascinated with the "Princess of Power". I have a DVD of a few
episodes and the He-man/She-
ra cartoon movie and she loves it. It totally fits her personality. Emmie is a sweet little girl most of the time, but then in a moments notice she
transforms into this defensive fighter super girl. You don't mess with Emmie when she is not so sweet. Emmie is not afraid to defend her territory or her Will or Jason.
Here is John working hard in the basement. He quite enjoyed himself working and listening to
BYU kick some UCLA butt. Thanks John for the hard work. You are the best a gall could have.

Emmie is such a cute little girl, you have cute kids Kristal. How are things going for you, and good luck with your basement.
I love when kids fall asleep in funny places! I am glad you got a picture of that! That is cool you are getting your basement finished. It IS a lot of work, and it will seem like it is taking forever....when Nick finished ours, it took a while, and I was wishing we could have afforded to pay someone, but we DID get it done eventually....just the family room, and a bedroom. We are now working on a bathroom, and that IS taking forever. So good luck, and make sure to post pictures once it is done!
