New Family Table!

   This evening we picked up a table set that we found on Craigslist.  It was exactly what Mom was looking for and it included 8 chairs and a bench.  She’s pretty excited about what she’s been able to find on Craigslist-we got this set for about 1/3 of the original price and it’s only 4 years old.

   It’s fantastic to have a real dining table to eat at after using our outdoor patio furniture for the past 9 months.  This family table is really an heirloom piece and was hand crafted in England.

We headed over to my Aunt’s and Uncle’s house to help them landscape their front yard.



There used to be a lot of unseemly plants and ivy growing in this area, so the plants were pulled out, the weed fabric was pulled up and we smoothed the ground out.

Tire Trouble

 

We’re very thankful that God kept us safe during our road trip to Michigan.  A couple of days after we got back home Noah noticed that our front left tire had a large chunk taken out of it and needed to be replaced.   My Mom knew that that tire was getting old and had wanted to replace it before the trip.

Thankfully, we had no blowouts while we were hauling the canoe and trailer during the 1500 miles that we drive to and from and also around MI.

Time for War

  We had a great evening last week playing some war with our friends!  We had a few great air soft battles and ended the evening with some Axis & Allies!
   I love strategic games and because I am the only one in the house who does, I usually end up playing by myself.  I win every time.
