Glitter Galore

So I had a great time cleaning out my garage on Wednesday.  I pulled stuff out, moved things around and swept the entire garage.  I was pretty satisfied with the results and decided to call it a day (I had to work that evening).  I went to work and my allergies started acting up.  I was sneezing all over the place and my eyes were on fire!!!

I was exhausted Thursday, being as I had worked all night long the night before (and my allergies always wipe me out anyway).  I stayed in the living room with the kids, but to my dismay, I fell asleep after I laid the baby down for a nap.  I was watching Hook with the kids.  

Well, my dear, sweet Dakota decided to make me something special "because she loves me".  When I woke up I found glitter everywhere.  Glitter all over in the basement bathroom.  She dumped most of the contents from 4 containers of glitter.  There was a HUGE pile of glitter on the floor; it was all over the sink and on the rugs.  Lucky for me the glitter managed to get tracked to the upstairs as well.

I thought I had it all cleaned up (as well as glitter will clean up) when I walked into the girls room.  I had no idea we had so much stinkin' glitter in the house.  It was all over the desk and the floor.  By the way, glitter doesn't vacuum off carpet very well.  Though, on the upside, they now have a beautiful sparkling bedroom floor!

And now I am a proud owner of a very beautiful glitter masterpiece made by my sweet little 5-year-old.  Life just doesn't get better than that.  I know i am truly loved.  She spent a lot of time making that for me.  She is ever so thoughtful!
