Walmart has these in long-sleeved and short-sleeved versions... men-sized:

I was looking for photos to see what color they wear. The VAST majority of them are in white, but I did find THIS:

This HAPPENS to be the looney girl who is now in prison, so you can see how the orange really IS multi-purpose.

Depends.
Is the book report an after 5 PM kind of thing?

We dyed Easter eggs with my mom, sister and niece last night. Lucy was hysterical, we gave her an egg and she had a ball tossing it all over the table and the trying to eat it.

Those are great egg holders, Robyn! Where did you find them?

I was thinking of a paint store, hardware store or even Walmart or Target in the men's work clothes area.

that's what I was thinking!!

I knew I was forgetting to ask something this weekend!! Thanks Tia!!

Hmm. Maybe.

I think for Kristine's purposes it might be better to start plain and then work up to something more glitzy.

Kristine, Queen of all that is Gadgety, do you own a Bedazzler? You could use the plain suit for the astronaut and then jazz it up for a fabulous Elvis get-up at Halloween!

In case you need to order one:

Hi, everyone. John and I went to lunch for my birthday for Mexican. Then we went FURNITURE shopping! Now that I have a real job, we are splurging after 13 years of marriage and buying bedroom furniture, drapes, etc and making our room a true Master retreat. Our bed is literally just a mattress on the metal frame. I'm so excited to finally have a real bed! We have a cherry armoire, dresser with mirror, and man's Highboy already. They are accented with pewter knobs and a little black iron on the mirror. We got this cherry bed, this chair and ottoman, and either these side tables or these black and cherry ones (we're going back to decide after lunch). Our room is large with a vaulted trey ceiling and a reading alcove. The walls are a soft yellowish-taupe. The bathroom is done in that color with a soft sage green, white, and black accents. We have white plantation shutters on the windows in our room. I'm getting drapes in either black or a darker sage green, a silk comforter in a solid sage, and then pillows in black/gold/green patterns. I can't wait!

My in-laws came over yesterday afternoon, and we all went to dinner last night. They are watching the kids this afternoon so John and I can go out. They are leaving later today, and then we'll have Easter just us tomorrow. The kids had an Easter Egg Hunt this morning, and it was a lot of fun. We still haven't had my birthday cake, so I can't wait to have a big piece after lunch.

Hope everyone has a great Easter!

The furniture is beautiful! Your room is going to look great and you certainly deserve it!

Rees had his IEP for the 2008-09 school year yesterday, and the school ONCE AGAIN is just going overboard to make sure he has EVERY resource possible and whatever he needs. And his new wheelchair should be here in the next 2 months. It may not arrive in time for our trip. If now, we will just rent one for the week.

Great news all around! I'm so glad that Rees is getting everything that he needs to thrive. Hope the chair comes in time for your trip!

what I need is Deb! Anything I find is going to be WAY too big. Kirsten is teeny tiny...I wonder how I will shorten a jumpsuit made of tyvek...

I must have a Bedazzler somewhere...I will have to look in the basement...It's probably on the shelf under the alarm clock that crows like a rooster!!
