The girls are sleeping right now. DH is at the store getting groceries. I am taking the opportunity to catch up on a few computer items. I posted the week’s article to the Christmas Notebook and uploaded more pictures. I’ll be doing a lot of uploading this week, I’m sure. The girls were glad to […]
While we are here for our son’s wedding, we get to spend a lot of time with our granddaughters. It has been almost four months since we saw them last. They have grown and changed a lot since then. She must have one of her ten year old aunt’s genes…we had lots of baby books […]

But this morning, Zak sauntered in. Zak ate from Niko’s bowl, while Niko watched and they were on Niko’s […]
Here’s the coat closet after DH took the old floor and subfloor out. But before the new flooring was installed. This was a half bath when we bought the house. A tiny bath in an awkward spot. We made it into a coat closet and it worked much better that way. After the new flooring […]
The flooring guys are finishing the addition floors today, as well as putting hardwood in the front hall coat closet.
