Well, another very busy weekend has just flown!

Friday I spent some time with my mom in Indianapolis at a "Speaking on Women's Health" Conference. We had a good time and I learned belly dancing and even fooled someone at the mall. Apparently, I still look like I am 20 yrs old!!!

Yesterday we spent moving my sister and her family from their home in Columbus to a new home in Edinburgh. It was nice weather to be moving and we were able to get quite a few boxes unpacked.

Today we went to church and then spent the afternoon enjoying a local lunch spot and some putt putt golf with some of the youth of our church. We had a good time!

As promised, I have included some inside pictures of what we have gotten done on the house. Enjoy!

This was our bathroom about Decemberish....The round thing on the floor is the toilet flang.


This is another view from the back wall of the bathroom. On the left will be an inclosed shower stall. You will see it in one of the other pictures.


This view looks into the 2nd bedroom, currently still in progress...


This is our bathroom now, all we need now is the door, We can add that once the floor is laid in the hallway.

This is another view (from the doorway) of the new bathroom. It is so nice to have working facilities in the house!!!

As soon as we have more done, I will send out more pictures.

Pictures of the House

I know it has been a bit since I last wrote. Things have been pretty busy here! Scott has been working on the plumbing in the laundry/bathroom in the back of the house. I have been working on keeping the outside as nice as I can with the heat and humidity as of late.


Here are some pictures of what we have done so far inside and out! Enjoy!


This is the front yard, small, but certainly enough to keep me busy most of the year!


This is our back yard. Our oldest, Bear, is standing guard on the deck. He is really a big sissy and spends most of his time there when he is outside! Finally we have been able to enjoy some time outside the last few days as it hasn't been as warm.

Last summer I spent a LOT of time right here. This summer has kept me a bit busier and the weather has prohibited some of my hammock time. I can't wait for cooler weather to be able to enjoy some quality time in the hammock.



I also have some pictures of the bathroom that is mostly finished. We have had a functional bathroom since February and it is wonderful!!!! I will include those in my next post!

Have a great day!

What a Week...and it's only Thursday!

Wow! I cannot believe that it is already Thursday. It seems like it was just Sunday. We have been super busy this week. I worked Monday and Wednesday and I am heading in about 11:30 today as well.

Tuesday I spent most of the day at home baby sitting the "kids", making some calls for wedding stuff, and waiting for my car to be finished at the Volkswagon dealer in Speedway, IN. I had to have several things done and was kinda sweating it because it was 4 and I still hadn't heard if they were finished and I needed to pick-up my car before they closed at 6p.m.

Not only did we drive to Speedway, we actually headed up to Muncie to see Scott's Gradma Rector. She has been in a nursing home for several years and had some medical problems Tuesday morning and we just felt the need to visit and see her. As far as I know, she is doing okay. Scott's mom, Sandy, has been taking care of her since she has been in the home and was there Tuesday night as well. She had spent most of Tuesday with her mom.

Scott and I were both pretty tired by the time we got home Tuesday night and it was straight to bed for both as we had early mornings.

Anyway, it has been kinda busy around here, hope all is well with you! I am going to try to take some pictures this weekend of the house, yard, etc so you have something more exciting to look at!
