Happy Trails!

Just wanted to check in with you all before we "hit the road again"! We have a week in MN that includes a wedding, family pictures, gatherings, etc....and I'm going to attempt to be somewhat good while I'm there. And then back to it big time when I get back!
Here are some pictures of the Kumquats we tried this last week. They taste kind of like an orange and lemon!
Have a great week! I'll be checking in!

Sweet 16!!

Happy Birthday, Deidre!
How time flies! It doesn't seem like that many years since our first baby arrived, and here she is already sixteen years old! We celebrated the evening with our neighbors and Mrs. Ivey. Mrs. Ivey was Deidre's aide for four years in elementary school. She still feels like part of the family!

Our Latest Project.....

(Above) air return in upstairs hallway
(Below) OOPS! Not quite the size we were looking to put in!

1 instruction manual + 1 cuppa coffee= ready to install?!

Something's growing out of my ceiling!

This is more the size we were aiming for! All nice and neat!

That probably should read "Wayne's Latest Project"! Dressed in layers we headed to the attic to begin our air conditioning project. It was freezing cold up there, but I know we will truly appreciate it come July! After 13+ years with only a window air-conditioner downstairs we will have it in the whole house!
The holes are only about 3 1/2"............except for the OOPS! Thank goodness it wasn't ME that put it there. We have plans to someday redo our bedroom, so the ceiling will be repaired at a later date! At least it isn't open into the attic still!
