Productive day

double stroller before, and when its been stripped of the seats

after, ya i know it doesn't look much different, it smells better though :)

I haven't had a mantle or a shelf to decorate before so this year being bored one night i created a Halloween display and i know it isn't that cool but I'm pretty proud of how it turned out considering i just used what i had which isn't much.
its pretty fun to look at in the dark but these pictures don't do it justice.

I had Makayla try on this bee costume to see if it still fit, although she will be going as a hula dancer for Halloween. Well when i put it on her she didn't want it off so she spent most of the day in a bee costume, and since she is such a hat person she added the hat to just complete the outfit so i had to take a couple pics.

I love days when i can say something got done, and because i have nothing left to do that i want to do right now I'll tell you how today went! i woke up early did a haircut then snuck back to bed because i didn't want to be up that early, then i woke up again when Makayla did, made her some eggs (I'd already eaten breakfast the first time i woke up), and did the dishes. Jared came home from school and the gym, i decided to clean up Makaylas sock box in her drawer which i haven't done since she was born because i hate mating socks (we also have a big sock drawer in the laundry room because its just something i don't care to do) So i mated all the socks in the box and put all the "too little" ones that couldn't pass for boy socks in a laundry bag to be put away in a clothes tub down stairs for when i have another girl. The white socks that needed extra help cuz the soles were so brown i put in the sink with some bleach and anything else i could think of to whiten them. I think i folded 3 loads of laundry one of them containing the newly bleached socks for my son. So now he has some socks although I'll probably still go get him at least one bag of new ones. After lunch Makayla went to bed, Jared went to work and i took a much needed shower, then i patched up two pairs of jeans that have started to tare on the bum, so hopefully they will last longer cuz i really like one of them. Then I pulled out the 2 seat stroller my mom found for free on the side of the road with a sign that said free, it is super sun faded and every time I've looked at it it makes me tired but today i took off all of the fabric sprayed it down with spray and wash and washed it in the washing machine then i wiped down the whole frame sucked up the spider webs with the vacuum and used window wash to get all the dust off. Then when the fabric was finished drying i screwed it back into place on the stroller. Its now all disinfected and smells nice but it still looks sun fade and worn and I'm contemplating reupholstering the thing but it may be a job too big to tackle.. we'll see. I raked the backyard again while Makayla played in the leaves, then went inside to make "noodles" (makaylas way of saying she wants top ramen) but we are out so i made egg noodles with a top ramen packet and added left over shredded pork with frozen peas and ended up with pork noodle soup and it actually tasted good to me and i ate most of it, makayla ate some noodles and left the rest, oh well. We watched some of the biggest loser then went to a visiting teaching interview. Came back and ate an apple with Makayla, then i picked up all of the apple peel she spit out all over the carpet, then i put her to bed for the night. And now I'm writing you an extremely boring post but yet its something to pass the time till Jared gets off of work. I'll post some pics of the stroller i hope it looks a little bit different but I'm thinking it wont really.
