I'm in a Just Do It mode - I want to get the house ready for guests coming on Memorial Day weekend, I want to get the fence put in, I want more time to quilt or scrapbook and I want time to spend with the kids this summer and to meet new friends. So, here's a few things we're Just Doing this weekend.

Friends:
Emily had new neighborhood girls spend the night last night. She swore she'd never make new friends and she hates the neighborhood and she'll hate the new school and on and on. But, hmmmmm.....don't tell her I said this, but having new people over to spend the night and having a Beatles Rock Band Wii party kind of feels like she's making new friends. ; But, what do I know? I'm just the mother!
Dining Room:
I bit the bullet and ordered some dining room furniture this past week. It's not expensive stuff but I think it will last us for a long time. And the hubby says that he's at my disposal today to clean out this mess and get the room ready for the delivery on Tuesday. Yeah!!!
So, that's what we're doing this weekend! How about you?
