Here is another corner of my fridge. I love looking at this stuff every day.<br />
<br />
<br />
Included:<br />
<br />
- A picture I got in my Woodard Christmas card this year of 3 cute kids I hope to see in person again soon.<br />
<br />
- A very precious picture of me, Carrie, Mom, and my mom's best friend Linda. This picture was taken at my brothers wedding May 21st, 2005. Linda passed away in a car accident 1 year later on May 22nd, 2006. I sure miss her.<br />
<br />
- A Branson magnet. Branson was home for 3 years. Lots of WONDERFUL memories of those 3 years. I got to live in the same town as my Grandparents, LOVED that and met a whole lot of wonderful people! Got to experience some Mid West summers, loved the heat, did NOT love the bugs.<br />
<br />
- My Disneyland magnet....need I say more.<br />
<br />
- Soccer pics. These are a couple of years old. But they are so cute!<br />
<br />
- And a lot more homemade magnets made at 4H.TLKOREGONhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09600478736353808438noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3961830337621434566.post-7155856140543228222016-03-03T06:00:00.000-08:002017-10-17T14:20:30.995-07:00The New Chicks<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

These 2 are suckers for chicks, little fuzzy chicks at Wilco. So when we went for a few things that DIDN'T include chicks, and we walked in and saw all the troughs of cute little fuzzy chicks, of course we had to come home with a couple. Meet Esther and Astrid. </div>

I love the things that have ended up on my refrigerator. There are things on there from my first year of marriage, gifts, pictures that make me smile and bring back wonderful memories, and magnets from wonderful trips and times in my life. I wanted to share just a corner of it with you....<br />
<br />
Included:<br />
- A list of biblical virtues I got from Randi (Seeber) Patterson<br />
- A magnet from Louisiana I bought in New Orleans when I went back to Mississippi for Thanksgiving after my nephew George was born<br />
-A magnet (the heart) from Maxine Cloyd as a thank you for being her secret sister<br />
-A magnet (the cat) from a lady at church named Barbara she gave me when she was my secret sister<br />
- A picture I made for Carrie last year and made a copy for myself too<br />
- The little round magnets on the right are magnets the girls made this year in 4H at Christmas<br />
- and the really cool peelers I got at a store in Lake Oswego named Sur La Tabla. I bought them the day I went with a lot of wonderful special women in my family. The last time we did that before a big change was made.<br />
<br />
A lot of wonderful reminders about a lot of wonderful times with a lot of special people.<br />

We did our usual Christmas morning opening of presents and stockings, much happiness and joy. Then after the stockings were empty I handed Violet another box that had a clue in it, which then sent her on a small scavenger hunt around the house....</div>

I had hid Hazel's first clue under that little cardboard ginger box on the table in front of her. We were going to make her sweat it a little, make her think that she didn't get a scavenger hunt, but after Violet's hunt was over the video camera died. So we actually had to wait about 15 minutes, I felt HORRIBLE because she did make a comment about "I wish I could have a scavenger hunt" and looked disappointed. Even in her disappointment though she was super sweet and didn't complain, such a sweetie. Finally, it was killing me, the camera was charged enough, and we started her hunt, she was SOOOO happy, and she didn't have a clue what was waiting for her. We sent her around the house....</div>

Well, I've made a resolution... I am resoluting (word or not, I'm not sure, but I'm using it) to keep up with the blog. At least once a week. So whether I have followers or not, there will be a blog post at least once a week. I love looking back and seeing what we have done in the past, and this is just such a great way to do that.<br />
<br />
To start it off, here are a couple of pics of the new puppy, Bolt.<br />

Here is the pile of wood that was salvaged from the gutting of the rooms. On one fun Saturday I got to pull all of the nails and screws out of all that wood. It ultimately resulted in me feeling the need to get a tetanus shot, because I walked into a nail that was sticking out of the end of one of them. 4 hours and about a million nails later we had a pile of reusable boards. It's the least I can do, since my husband/ contractor has to do all the thinking, planning, and HEAVY lifting.</div>

We were still able to use the shower, but had to get creative with the shower curtains so water didn't get all over the place.<br />

And then there was no door, just a tarp covering the entrance to the bathroom. You can see on the ground where the wood floor ends, that's where the "pink room" door used to be. Now we just had one big room, with a shower in the middle of it. =)</div>

We have been wanting to do some remodeling for a long time, and on Memorial Day weekend those plans started to become reality! It is going to be a process, but I have a talented and handsome contractor who knows a whole bunch about remodeling, so I know that the process will be great and exciting. </div>

Troy and I have been sleeping in the girls old room, after we upgraded them to our big bedroom, and since this one of the rooms getting remodeled, we have been relocated upstairs to the current TV room. </div>

It started with a whole lot of mess! As Troy started pulling stuff off the wall, he found a layer of Sheetrock, a layer of paneling, another layer of Sheetrock, then the lath and plaster, and then the blown in insulation. It was a dusty sheetrocky mess for a while! </div>

There were ALOT of trips back and forth the trailor and lots of bags of garbage to fill. I am so glad that part is over! Poor Troy and I were blowing black stuff out of our noses for days. Fun!</div>

This particular leg of our trampoline was the place to be.<br />

I have a co worker whose husband is a beekeeper, so I gave her a quick call and he was at our house within 15 minutes, and without bee suit walked up to the swarm, called them "babies", and got to work. This was his third call of the day, and while he was working he got another call! <br />
As he worked he gave us some very interesting bee facts, and as far as I know he didn't get stung once. Which is one of the interesting facts, when they are "house searching" they are not aggressive, it's only when they have a home that they get territorial. <br />

He said there were probably about 8000 bees, and they had made their way up under the under lip of the trampoline liner. He thought that this was probably where the Queen was, because they seemed confused about where they needed to be. As long as she was still on the trampoline, they wouldn't move to the bee hive box. So he needed to put his bee suit on and get pushy by scooping them into the box.<br />

After he was sure that the Queen had relocated to the New House he left the bee box and said he would come back after dark to take it away.</div>

I asked him if I owed him anything, and he said no because this was a really easy move, as they weren't in an attic or a steep roof. He is actually going to give me a jar of honey! Score! Thank you bees for invading my backyard!</div>
