Remodeling is a pain

We are in the process now of remodeling our "new" house. What a pain! We tore the carpet up in 2 of the rooms and all the trim. The doors have to be replaced too. The previous owners tore it up when they found out they were going to lose it. We have the rest of the house to get the carpet out and then patch up drywall before painting can be done. Yuck. When we get done with it though it will look totally different. Thats the fun part. We had some old dead trees that had to come out and that is also done. Its exciting to work on it and see it change daily. I am looking forward to getting in it.

We are off to pick up some outdoor toys we got for a good deal from a friend moving out of state. She ran a daycare and sold everything. We were able to get about 5 big items for Alanna for $80.00. Yippee! We priced one of the things at Toys R Us and it orginally cost 120.00, and its like brand new. I know Alanna can't use them now but she will soon and will love it. We got one of those Little Tyke playhouses that has never been outside. Its exciting. I am planning on playing with her inside the house. They ought to be a great kodak moment.
