Happy Halloween

Who knew that my mother would make the perfect old lady for Halloween??!!! (That's Ada in pink!!!)

Exterior Lighting

When Lance flipped on the lights I HAD to run and get the camera! Pictures don't do it justice. It was such a beautiful sight to see my home lit up on the outside! This house is my dream house - for me it represents in part my love for Lance and the brood of children that will someday fill it. NEhoo, I think the house is beautiful! Can't you just imagine it all bricked and finished on the outside with some little flowerbeds around the front?!

WTC

This is out of nowhere, I know, but I saw this pic and couldn't NOT post it. Most people know that I'm very patriotic at heart and want to continually remind people that there is a war on terrorisom going on here in the US and in foreign countries that is still costing american lives. I fully support the war and want to protect this lifestyle of freedom that we have here in America - even though there are some very very ignorant and ungrateful citizens that don't fully appreciate their freedom. This picture reminds me of why we fight, why we care, why we as a country NEED to take action, need to continue to take action. God Bless the USA, and Pray for our victory!

Siding Progress

Last week I was finally able to find a siding contractor that wasn't trying to charge me an arm and a leg for simply hanging some vinyl soffits and a few square feet of vinyl "shake" siding. By the way - Hanke Bro.s charge and arm and a leg and want your first born child.

They were able to start work immediately - something that I negotiated for 'cause I want the brick mason to be able to start ASAP. Today is the 3rd day they have been working on it and it doesn't look like it will take them long!

Bambi

What may look like a simple nature shot (taken near our house) is really a picture of a deer trying to hide from my camera. Click the pic to view larger. I'm always tellin folks that I see deer and they're like "yeah right". Here's proof! :)
