Official Bag Lady?

Bag's, I have bags!!!

In cleaning the closet this past weekend I realized that I have way more than my share of bags. Bags of all colors, shapes, sizes, with and without wheels. The most interesting find were the bags from a local women's conference I've attended a few times and the ones from the organization I belong to (PRIMR/ARENA) for work, and thank goodness they didn't get on the bag bandwagon for many of the years I attended their conferences.

The women's conference is an amazing event who has had such speakers as: Ann Richards, Suze Orman, Dr. Phil, Soledad O'Brien, Mary Lou Retton, Linda Ellerbee, Bill Geist, Linda Evans, Nancy Brinker and Doris Christopher.

Anyway, these are now on the top shelf of my walk in closet in a laundry basket until I figure out what the heck to do with them.

Junk vs Stuff

This is just one wall of our 2 car garage at the new house. OMG, yes it needs work, lots of it. I hope this Labor Day weekend to do some laboring at home and get this and the inside of the house better than it is now. Just saying.....

Anyway I'll be back with more pics of the progress.

Introducing Skyler Andrew-Our third grandson

He has been here almost a month and I have yet to blog about him. He is Skyler Andrew born at 10:46am, August 4th, 2010. He was 6lbs 13oz and we are all in love with him. His brothers Tanner (4) and Bryce (7) love him to bits. This was our first look at him as the boys were with me (their Nina) at our house in St Joseph when he was born and we knew within a couple minutes as daddy made the phonecall that morning telling of his arrival, but we wanted to "see" him. Finally this picture came thru, and I showed the boys, but it wasn't a reality for them until they got to actually lay eyes on him in mom's hospital room in this cribette and then hold him. Welcome to the world Baby Skyler!
