WHAT WAS CHERYL THINKING??!!!!!

Christmas is 9 days away. Brent comes home Thursday evening. Brian and Elise come home Monday and our house is a wreck! I (luckily) convinced Greg to get a small Christmas tree this year and put it on the tile so we could scoot it around. I also didn't put up many decorations because I knew I'd have to move them. The nativity is up, the advent calendar, and the stockings but not much else. The painters are spraying the stairs today and working on the fireplace. I think they will then move on to the ceilings which will soon be white as opposed to beige. I am keeping the house in the beige tones as I don't want to have to redo all the decorating; it will be a darker and less pink beige though. We've decided that this is a good time to get the work done as people in the industry don't have many jobs right now. I hope my college kids don't hate me :-(
