Our House


Home ownership. What can I say- I guess that means you are really grown up. It also means that we have "projects" that keep us busy. Please note the side fence. That was installed by Ryan to keep our children in- (the natives, as called by Ryan) but more to keep "other" neighbor children out.

I will never, ever in my whole life stain another fence. The picture does not do justice to the misery! Ryan built the fence with a little of my assistance and I stained the fence with a little of his assistance. BUT, everything was smooth sailing until he was "monitoring" my process (and being a bit bossy) and the tubing on my canister (shown above) blew off do to pressure -and my unforutnate user error. The stain was shooting out in all directions and mainly on me and Ryan was yelling, "YOU'RE WASTING THE STAIN! WHAT ARE YOU DOING?"- my neighbors/neighborhood observed the calm Dr. Williams at his very best! Uhm- did he think I liked the flavor or something and wanted that to happen? He appologized ALL DAY long.

I love this picture Lacy, you truely are a home owner when you get covered in some form of gunk trying to make your home a little more like heaven! :) The kids look so big I cried...Landon is so handsome and I can see so much of Tanner in his cute face.

I was surprised to see how big Emma has gotten! I'm really excited that you guys started a blogspot, I've missed you so much!

What fun to find your name on Jocelyn's list of blogger amigos. WOW! I can't believe how much your kids have grown, and Landon is sooo cute, just like the other two.
Your home looks beautiful and I, too, can empathize with the stain pic. We have had MANY home projects over the years. Right now we are working on little "casitas" behind the peach orchard for our elderly moms.
