July 29, 2008

*sidenote-you may have realized that my watermark has been different the past few days. I can't seem to access my new watermark file through PS, so I've been creating simple ones with bracketed wording (a la the wonderfully creative Toni) until i can figure out why my file won't open. That's all. :)

Tomorrow's an exciting day for us. All I've heard all day is "Amanda's coming tomorrow!! Amanda's coming tomorrow!!"

So...Amanda's coming tomorrow, LOL! She gets in from Africa tomorrow afternoon, and she's all ours until Wednesday evening. Yay! I'm so glad she got the opportunity to go to Africa, but we did miss her terribly.

I sent the kids out on the driveway to play, so they wouldn't mess up my clean house, and they decided to write welcome messages to Amanda:

This guy:

was most interested in coloring his feet instead.

Don't ask. I didn't. But he was walking down our driveway like this.

We really did, chica. We can't wait for you to get here tomorrow.

Ahhh, totally melts my heart. I missed them so much. I'm glad you got pictures, because I totally forgot (blame it on jet lag). You guys are awesome!
