Electrican's in the House!!

Ever since we bought our home we have had a long list of things that need to be fixed or updated. One of those projects is changing all of the light switches and plugs in the house to white instead of bisque. To my delight, Jeff said that while I was gone to Kentucky he would change them ALL!! Well off I went and my dedicated husband began slaving away at changing the switches but to his dismay it ended up being a much bigger project than antisipated. He tried to pay his cousin to do it but that didn't work either (I can't blame him). So needless to say, since I have been home we have slowly been working on them together.
The light switch in our master bedroon has had us stumped for about 1 wk now!!! It is a 3 way and we have arranged the wires on the switchs in every possible arrangement and still it is not working correctly (keep in mind we live in a 4 level split-- master is on the top floor and fuse box is on the bottom)! AUGH!!!!
TODAY I HAVE GOOD NEWS!!! THE MASTER SWITCH IS FIXED... by yours truly (while jeff was off golfing no less:)) Oh, but one bit of bad news... now the plug located between the two switches (which has not been touched) is not working!! AUGH AUGH!!!!

Purses!!!

Well, here they are! Three new purses... what more could I want...? NOTHING;)

Purse Party

As mentioned in a previous blog entry I had a purse party last Thur.(HAPPY BIRTHDAY KATHRYN!!). Let's just be honest here... I've never really been one that likes having these kind of parties because I just don't want people to feel obligated to purchase something! Well, this was once again the case! We did have lots of fun though and it was great to visit with all my girly friends! (THANKS EVERYONE FOR COMING!) The question you are all asking yourselves I am sure is... 'Well how many purses did Melissa end up buying?'
You will have to stay posted!! Pictures will follow soon. oh, i mean a picture, i mean pictures, i mean just 1 picture, i mean...

Tears Were Shed!

Pretty much since before Kathryn and Trevor moved to Kentucky I have been looking forward to going and visiting them! SO SO Sadly the 10 day excursion has come and gone!! We had so much fun together! I was comforted to find that the girls hadn't completely forgotten me. Meg was quiet for most of the car ride back to the house and then she was back to her happy friendly self the rest of the time!! I can't believe they have been gone for only 4 months, I swear it has been 4 years! Well, it won't be long I am sure and I will be back again! In fact just today Jeff said (with out me bringing it up:)) "If you want to can go over Christmas break"... HELLO, if I want??? Is that a question?
I LOVE YOU GUYS and I miss miss miss you already!!! I will be back soon!

Lethal Luau

Cheers! A few weeks ago Jeff and I hosted a Lethal Luau mystery dinner. We all dressed the part and over dinner debated which one of us murdered 'our friend' Chase.


Preston and Ashley: BoJo the surfer dude (and THE MURDERER!!!) and Nadia the swimsuit model.


Kip and Chantel: Chief WikiWiki the ancient chief and Holly Day the powerful billionaire.

Jeff and I: Les Baggs and clumsy tourist and Leilani the hula dancer.

After the mystery was solved there was limbo...ing, of which Jeff (not flexible) gave it a good try and made it under once, Preston made it a little further and Kip can hold his own with the limbo! Chantel and Ashley however were the Champions!! Wow ladies we were all very impressed!!

Then there was hula...ing! I have such talented friends!! (not to mention good sports!)

We finished off the night with a friendly round of Ticket to Ride!

GOOD FOOD, GOOD FRIENDS, GOOD TIMES!!! What more can I say!
