What A Great Week!!!!


We just got back from a week in Baltimore with Scott....   We had a great time, we did a lot, seen a lot of neat things and had a lot of fun.....


On our way out to Scott's we came into a bad storm...  We had the radio turned off and all of a sudden we could hear the emergency siren so we turned on the radio and they announced that a tornado had touched down right where we had gone through. At the time we couldn't figure out why cars were parking under the bridges....  then we knew why.  Hahaha

First we went into Washington DC and did a tour bus...  Only got a couple pictures, I forgot my camera at Scott's also a lot of things were closed as they were preparing for the 4th:

Next we went to the National Aquarium in Baltimore...  Here are a few pictures from there:

We stuck around the house on the 4th and played Scott's WII....  had a blast...  I also showed Scott how the marshmallow shooter worked and we had a blast with that...  We also watched a bunch of movies...


So on Thursday we went to Gettysburg to the museum, it was really busy there but was a lot of fun.

 So on Friday we decided to celebrate Scott's birthday, which is on the 10th.  So we told Scott that we would do anything that he wanted to do...  So here was our day:

I might also add here that Scott won both games...  I told him that we let him win cause it was his birthday celebration....  but the true is, we were not so good at it.  =)

It was really hot so we went home and and watched movies, got pizza for dinned then german chocolate cake for dessert!!!  Yummy

APARTMENT PICTURES


So I took some pictures of the apartment now that we have furniture of it...  all we need is a tv in there and the trim done so we can put real blinds up, it is going to be a great escape or guest house!!!  I love it....

Eventually we will get kitchen cabinets in our kitchen....  

CRAIGSLIST


I love craigslist...  About two weeks ago, we needed to get rid of one of the truck shells that has been setting in the back yard for ...  maybe two or three years!  So we washed it up and posted it on craigslist for $100.00....   These are the pictures that I posted with the ad.

So the first day I didn't hear anything and I was thinking that maybe I did something wrong...  but the second say I started to get e-mails inquiring on the shell and by that afternoon I had a guy drive out here from Asheville North Carolina and bought it!!!  He was so happy and so were we.


So I was thinking...  that worked really well so lets try it again....  So this morning I went out and took some pictures of a bbq that we were going to put out for the trash guys next week and lets see what happens....


So I posted FREE BBQ  The first one here gets it!!  ....  Here are the pictures I took:

And I will be darn if within 15 minutes the bbq was gone!  I also had another guy show up 5 minutes later and was sad it was gone.  I also had 2 e-mails saying that they wanted it....  but it is gone!  That was really fun!!  Can't wait to do it again!!

BOY IS IT QUIET AROUND HERE!!


Well Jeff and Lindsay left last night for their month long vacation then they will end up in Idaho...  =(
Sure going to miss them.  On the up side...  we now have an apartment for visitors!!  I have been over cleaning and setting up for company!!  Our first guest will be Sam and Krysten on Friday!!  Hurray for company!!  Maybe it will take my mind off Caleb... Josh... Sarah...  and Tyler...  This Grandma is going to miss them a lot...  =(


This is the bathroom looking at the sink...  ready to go.

Here is the shower and toilet...

This is the left closet...

This is the right closet....

Looking into the bedroom from the closet area...  Mattress is being picked up from Costco today.

Here is the living room and when Daniel gets home from work we will be moving furniture in.

Here is the kitchen area..  and someday we will get the cabinets put in then it will look great!

As you can tell from the pick... we now need to trim up this place...  Jeff was going to try to do it but the time just slipped away, so we will get it done and also will give dad a little project to do around the house.

Also on a good note....  I have an extra refrigerator again...  How I have missed that!


We are leaving on Saturday to head up to Scott's for a week...  that will be fun, just wish Buka and Tsomo were going to be there also.  Maybe this will be a good visit with just Scott and maybe we might be able to soften his heart with the church just a bit.  =)  I will take pics..


Big news also, we got a pool.  Not a big one but will be great for cooling down on one of those hot days.
The kids tried it out last night and they had a blast in it.  =)  I love that it is on the patio so I can even sneak out into it and feel ok about it!  

Summer is going to be great this year, I can tell!!!!  =D

SAD DAY TODAY....

Was a sad day today...  we had to take mother and father goose to the pond...  It was so sad as they kept trying to follow us back to the truck.  =(.....

I tried to get them to go to the pond but they kept going into the brush and under the trees.  I sure hope they will be ok!!!  It was so sad.....
