I am trying to decide if I want to make the girls canvas bags for MNSSHP or use their plastic bags we got at Walmart last year.

There is some cute Mickey and the gang Halloween fabric at Joann's that I am going to use to make bags for us.

Can you get in to work on your room tomorrow? Sounds like you're pretty ready to go even with the short notice. I'm so excited for you!

All is still calm here, I fell asleep (that's why I haven't been posting). Looks like the outbands are pretty close to shore now so things should pick up soon.

Deb - are you planning on shaving Chris's head for the costume?

 

[MrsHeg]

Good Morning,

It's still pretty quiet but we are starting to get some gusts and the lights are flickering again. Thought I'd make another post while I still can.

Mike Seidel from the Weather Channel is here in town, Jim Cantore is in Houma, LA. You don't want to be the town that Jim goes to, he always goes to the "hot spot".

 

[MrsHeg]

So what is everyone else doing for this Labor Day Holiday?

 

[MrsHeg]

Well I think I can officially say Gustav has arrived. The winds have picked up and I keep hearing things hitting the roof, most of which are pine cones but they are pretty loud when they hit.

We've had at least one tornado in the area, and power outages are being reported.

Good morning

Well, our beautiful day is gone, and the first feeder band has arrived, it looks pretty rough out there and the power has already flickered. I wasn't counting on it going out so soon but if I don't check back in that is why.

Right now things look a little better, the storm is now back to a Cat 3 coming ashore and it is moving quickly which is good, the sooner it gets over land the better. It hasn't taken another turn this way so we should only get Tropical Storm winds.

Well.... I suppose I'm glad he's "just" a Cat 3! I hope things pass very quickly, and without too much damage.

This Labor Day weekend has been busy for me. Yesterday we were at a picnic at a coworkers house, until late in the evening. It was so hot and humid. Today we were at a picnic at Bob's coworker's house. Tomorrow we will close out the summer with an afternoon at the pool. I'm sending summer out with a bang!

You sure are! I didn't get in the pool all summer! Please enjoy it extra for me!

Jennifer I hope the girls sleep well for you tonight!

They so did! Was it thanks to you?!

I came home from work to day to having no wall between the kitchen & dining room. I think I am really going to like it like this, it makes the kitchen look much bigger! Of course the house is now coated with dust For the past 2 years our ceiling fan & light in the dining room has not worked, guess what is working now lol Gary said after he torn the wall down he seen the wire was kinked or something Anyway one thing less he has to fix!

I will post pictures of our newest mess soon.

That's too funny!

He was telling me that all of the platforms had to be tested each night before the show and that they got to volunteer to do the testing. He got to 'test' the platform at the very top that Mickey pops out of at the end, and pop out of it just like Mickey does. How cool would that be!?

So cool!!

Wow! You all left! I promise I showered today!!!

Well, the nursery is all painted. Alan needs to do some touch up where the kids were "helping" and got green paint on the trim that was supposed to stay white! Oh well. He promises me it won't be that bad. Tomorrow, we'll put all of Jacob's furniture back, and Alan will try to get the crib set up. I was planning on re-painting the dressers, but it's supposed to rain all day tomorrow, so we'll see if that happens. It's only supposed to get up to 58 degrees tomorrow, so I'm thinking it will be a good day to stay inside. Katie's room is the next one to be painted, so she gets to spend the day cleaning and de-junking.

I promise I'll post pictures, but only after things are coming together. Right now it looks like a mess around here! I had to move all the boxes of baby clothes out of the nursery until Alan can get the hope chest moved out of the closet and into the basement. Then, the boxes can go in the closet. My neighbor brought me over 2 packing boxes full of little boy shoes that will fit from birth to about 4 years old. Looks like Peanut won't be lacking for footwear for a while! I'm the only pregnant lady in our neighborhood, so all the people we know are excited and eager to help celebrate.

I'm watching the Gustav coverage, and just praying that a miracle occurs and he goes away peacefully. Not to mention Hannah! My prayers are with you Debbie! Please keep us posted as long as you can!

I can't wait to see pictures! And how nice of your neighbors to provide so much for you all!
