Fall Day

Today was a beautiful fall day. They don't get much better here in Texas. Actually, since Ike, the weather has been pretty spectacular. Great days to be outside and play....which we have done this weekend.

Speaking of Ike. Our insurance company finally gave us their number for the damage....only around $8K. The contractor's quote, which we gave the insurance company, was about $20K. Hmmm. That is not good. Hubby will be dealing with this little wrinkle this week. Lucky him.

Little one suprises us almost every day. Yesterday, we went to a new park. This park has a couple of play areas and then one large tube slide. Little one played on the kid toys for awhile, then saw the bigger kids going down the big slide. The slide is about 15 feet up the hill and fully enclosed. She scampered up the hill and watched the other kids going into the slide for a few times. Then she climbed in and "weeeee" all the way down. A big smile on her face as she emerged from the tube....and then back up and down many more times. Dad and I were tired of going up and down the hill. This is the biggest slide she has been down but she just jumped right in. She is a brave little stinker.

I haven't gotten back to scrapping yet. MCA designs has some great new things (8, I believe!!) that I am going to have to put into my tool box. There are so many previews on these items that Mel made them their own page. You can view all the specials for today HERE.There is also a Freebie for you on Monday only. After Monday it will return to its regular price. Find everything at http://mcadesigns.blogspot.com/.

Have a great week.
