Much needed....

I am so happy to have a long weekend! I have been sick with some sort of virus this week, so I am so thankful to have an extra long weekend to recover. Mom, Ashlyn, and I were hoping to head to the beach this weekend, but since we're not sure what the weather is going to be like we are going to stay in town. We don't want to get stuck in Labor Day traffic and then have terrible weather. That would really suck!
I guess that I'll use the weekend to go through Ashlyn's clothes and get rid of a ton of things that no longer fit her. Does anyone know of anybody that would want some baby girl clothes? I also plan to use one day for a good house cleaning; walls, base boards, everything. There is so much that needs to be done around our house. We still haven't even touched the basement yet. We are trying to decide if we will tile the entire basement, or just the half where we pulled the carpet up. I told Britt that if we tile half of it, we ought to go ahead and tile the entire thing. It will be alot of work though. Ashley - would Jon be interested in taking a look at it to see if he might be interested in the work and giving us an estimate? If so just let me know. He could probably get it done alot quicker than we could.
Some good news - we finally have furniture for our formal living room. Yippee!! This room has been bare for over a year now, but not anymore. A friend of ours is remodeling some rooms in their house, so we bought their furniture for a very small price. It looks like new, so we got a new sofa and love seat for almost nothing. Also, we are getting a swing set for Ashlyn for free. Can you believe that? She is going to LOVE it! I can't wait to see here face light up when she sees it! and you know that I LOVE FREE!!!
I hope that you all have a great Labor Day weekend. I'll keep you posted on mine. I'm sure that nothing exciting will happen, but if it does I'll let you know. =)

Just recently two of my coworkers had little girls let me know if you decide to give any of you clothing up, I know that they would be grateful.

Hope you had a great weekend! Did you relax? My friend Crystal is having a little girl this month. Let me know what types of things you have and I'll see if she's interested. I know she could really use baby clothes.
