A day full of electronics.


Do you think they're ready to eat?


Butch and his mom finishing their prep!



Dig in!!


The aftermath!


Lush!! (Really is sparking cider)





And a great Thanksgiving day was had by all. Especially the paint crew who didn't have to work :)

Christmas 2013

Merry Christmas 2013


 her expression was NOT caught on camera for this one, she really DID love it - a LOT of colors for the girl to expand on her painting :)
 Gotta love my IOU for a backscratcher - apparently a ROCKING one was ordered for me :)

 cashews and wine, what more could a woman want?


 Awkward pose when told to hold it in front of her chest instead of out towards me.  Silly girl - nope, she'll never be a model :)  We love her and will keep though!

 It's a supernatural thing :)




 It's a Dr. Who thing (weeping angel I found at Goodwill) I could NOT resist getting it for her... she said, "it really creeps me out"  hahaha - I have done my job this year :)


 What does the Fox say?  Oh, wait, that's a raccoon, disregard!
 It's a Dr. Who thing!


 Angela got the GREAT gift of a computer drawing tablet - it's been the hit of the day for sure!
 It's still a Dr. Who thing... yes, she's a whovian :)

 Note the weeping angel earrings as well as the bracelet :)  Gotta love these girls!
  Car emergency kit because she'll be taking her car back to college with her along with a new parking pass thanks to Mom and Dad.  No to mention a new tire and a gift card for Wal-Mart that can be used at the Murphy Oil there in her town as well.  Lucky girl!

 It's a thermos mug... somehow from the first look, it wasn't what he thought it was :)
 Hers was at the bottom of the pile and she was VERY unsure she was getting one :)  Happy girl!
 Checking out this years Calendar
 Lizzie checking out her book from our trip to Europe and all the photo matching that was done. 
 SCORE one for mom, I made her cry over her book from her trip to Italy!  She loved it!
 she is still teary looking at the NEXT present... awh, tender hearted girl!
 You'll shoot your eye out!!  ha!
 Ornaments with the girls pictures in them  - awh!!
 Thank you Uncle Donald and Aunt Robin!!


Everyone had a wonderful Christmas morning opening presents and eating on the variety of Muddy Buddies we got - yum!  peppermint and snicker doodle are surprisingly good :)  That and a cup of coffee and we were all happy.
 
 
The Turkey and ham and all the fixings for dinner with Mom and Dad!  We had a great long visit with them while they were here, we ate a HUGE meal and sent a lot of left overs home with them to enjoy later and still have a LOT left for us as well.  After a rest period after dinner we had a rousing game of Push the Dummy!


We hope our extended family also had a warm and wonderful holiday season wherever they were.

Garden project

 Angela and I pulled most of the weeds from the front bed - forgot a before picture of this side, but it looked something like this:
 baby birds in the green house - they look NAKED and HOT...
 The crew hard at work making a row...

finishing up the last little bit...
 the work crew!  (Ok, I look like a freaking GIANT in here - and no, I'm not standing on the row!)
we ended up with two rows but only one full one and one partial row filled with tomatoes - by June we'll be staking them to keep them upright!
Dad checked our progress and put together a final soaker hose out of the last partial one on the fence.  Life is good!
