chaos

i'm back...at least i hope so! the last week has been chaotic and it ended with a bbq that i was intending to have outside for 30+ people...it ended up being inside as the rain started to come down while the guests arrive. it was an extremely challenging day trying to cook 7 dishes, appetizers, stock a bar, etc with 2 kids right beside me begging for attention. i typically wouldn't do this on a day perry is at work but literally it was the only day left this "summer" that we could manage it. it ended up being a great evening...my house still shows evidence of the fun. that will be tomorrow's project!

becca and i are off to the alberta gift show tomorrow. it's going to be a crazy trip. wish we could have planned to be away for 2 days, but it's just too difficult with perry's schedule and not having family around. we've managed to plan out our vegas trade how/trip well so i'm hoping to get in some serious shopping while we are there!

i'm off to bed as i have had very late nights the last little while....and i've got the girls to myself all day again...thank goodness for coffee!

have a good night
