Thanks again to all of our family for the blogging that you do--- that blesses us in a wonderful way...
keeping us up to date with all of your lives...thank you, thank you, thank you!!!
Some of our recent goings on:
Last Sunday we had the privilege of going to the Kerr's to have dinner with them... and after dinner, spending time with Megan, Rachel & Dylan while Simon, Steve & Rosanna went to Simon's baptism preview that evening. We had a fun time with all the children. Simon played Grandpa another game of chess before we headed home - he is pretty good - still trying to get good enough to beat him! Way to go Simon!
Yesterday Jake & Camille came over with their boys for a little while - it had been a rainy, unusually warm start to the day, but in the afternoon (the day had been cooling off from the unseasonal start of 52 degrees) it surprised us when it began snowing very hard!! Jake & Camille thought it best to head home before the snow piled up too much for safety sake...
While they were here, Christian had fun helping Grandpa put some pink spackle on some new wood trim just installed (part of our ongoing home improvement, painting project). 'The spackle turns white when it is dry - so Christian kept checking and reporting the status of the spackle, delighted as it began to turn white and lost its pink coloration!!
Last week I had the privilege of stopping in to say hi to Melissa (while she was at work) having been in Provo on a work appt. (sold a new roof to a BYU student (returned missionary who had served in San Antonio...) )
We continue to make progress on our painting project... adding chair rail / wainscot moulding to the north walls in the kitchen/piano areas - it looks better - even makes the newly painted area look more classy!
We will include pictures next time - thanks for tuning in .....!
