A Colored in Heart

Morgan: Dad, when Elle was a baby, she had a hole in her heart!

Dad: Yeah, but she managed to fix it all by herself.

Morgan: Really? How did she color it in?

New Couch With Static Fun

We are finally going to do something with the humongous room in the basement. We got our couch today and our game table should be here in a couple of weeks. The kids have not stopped playing on the couch and, as you can see, it came with a slight bit a static.

Just to Brighten Your Day

Boom, Bang, Fire Power

Morgan and I met up with Grandma last night and saw Night at the Museum 2. Morgan ate almost an entire bag of popcorn by herself and drank an entire blue Icee. The movie was so cute, definitely a buyer. Anyway, I thought I would post Morgan's favorite part for you:

Unicorns

Morgan: Mom, I think unicorns might be real. Hey, did you know they eat corn and live in Una??

A poem by Morgan

Am I up in the sky?
I am not.
Are you?
You are not.
What did I just say?
Did I just say underwear?

When it rains it pours...

So, what's been going on with us lately? Well, we got our fence posts up and the day before the fence is to be finished, Ivory tells us we have the wrong property lines and have to redo the entire fence. Our construction foreman, during our final walk-through, showed us exactly where the property lines are, the sprinklers and landscaping were even done to these lines. He now claims he never told us anything of the sort, so we will have to fork over a nice chunk of change to fix the fence.
The weather is finally getting nice, up to the upper 80's. So of course, our air conditioner isn't working properly. It freezes up if it has to cool the house below 80. I have had someone out here 4 times to look at it. In fact, the service manager was here for almost 4 hours today trying to fix it. We thought he had finally done it, only to find our inside unit encased in ice before going to bed tonight.
The tile in the girls' tub is cracked along and entire corner of the wall, Miles' bedroom door won't shut properly, and everything I submit to warranty they tell me they will fix it at my year end paint touch-up and I end up having to fight tooth and nail over it.
I am tempted to say there is too much going wrong right now, but I have decided that I would rather have it that way. This way, after everything is taken care of, there is nothing else to go wrong and I can have a nice long peaceful time where nothing goes wrong. =)

On the plus side, Morgan wears these oversized plastic yellow glasses all day long...except when I have the camera...just walking around like she has always worn them and nothing is out of the usual, and it makes my heart happy every time I see her.
