Happy Last Day of July! :)

Hope the month of July was great for you. Can't believe that it will be August tomorrow and in 4 weeks school will start again. Looking for a part-time job for now, 2 or 3 days a week while Abbie is in school. I am thinking about applying at Kohl's, that is my new favorite store and it would be nice to have a discount to use there.




Last weekend we went up to the Irish Hills to Hayes State Park. Everyone went, mom & dad, Erika's family, Karla's family and our family. We had a picnic, played in the water and Grandma brought Bubbles along, which the kiddos had fun playing with. We also had a couple of exhausted kiddos that slept well that night.






This weekend is finishing the grain bin and seeing Wendee and her boyfriend at her brothers house. I cannot wait to see Wendee again and I'm sure it will be a great time (always is with Wendee's family). Later.......

No words of wisdom here...........

just some wisdom tooth pain. Yep, I had my wisdom teeth taken out Friday morning. Not doing too bad but I am limited as to what I can eat for a while. I was brave and decided on local anasthetic instead of being knocked out, which I have to say was an interesting experience. Now they are out and I don't have to worry about them any more. And I can't wait till this weekend when I get to see Wendee! I haven't seen her in a long time, so it will be good to catch up again.

A Bin Raising

Instead of a Barn Raising, get it?

Started building another grain bin last weekend. It was perfect weather to work on it and our tans (or should I say Matt & Charlie's sunburns). Matt has the electrical started, now waiting to get the jacks and some help to finish it.

It's Been A While.......

but there hasn't been anything too news worthy to post. Kind of boring, actually, which is nice. Went and picked up my stuff from Jenny Crafts garage sale yesterday and found I got rid of a TON of stuff!!!! She gives you what you sell in store credit, so I am saving that for when she gets new stuff in from what is at the CHA-Summer show in Chicago. Getting ready to start building another grain bin this year. Charlie is coming home to help and I get to make lunch and dinner for 5 guys. I told Matt we are going to grill for dinner, which is one thing I like about Summer. Later, Gators.................

Happy July 4th!

I hope you all had a wonderful 4th of July. Nothing too exciting except that Matt harvested his wheat field. We got together with Mom & Dad & Erika's family at Karla's Sunday night. We had planned on taking the girls to see Defiance's fireworks that night, but I got one of those headaches that make you sick to your stomach...not fun. Tonight we watched Napoleon's fireworks about an hour ago. So, no fireworks pics from '07. the ones below were taken in '05 when we went to see Lisa while she still lived in the Cleveland area. Hope you all got to see a fireworks show and Happy Independence Day!
