Arabella and Adam. Adam will be a great daddy. He loves his little niece.
Arabella smiling as usual. Sitting on one of my garage sale finds. I have a habit of looking for anything old and oak and usually will buy iy if it is cheap. I got this chair and a matching smaller one for $25.
The dog above is my buddy Leo. I had to take him to the groomer yesterday. $100 later he was clean, mat free, and sporting a green bandana. I knew it was gonna cost a lot because he was a MESS> Chris did a great job with him and I guess the whole place got along well with him. The one girl said he is such a loving dog!!!!! UMMM I have many a person that he absolutely hates and he won't let them lay a finger on him. The poor Schwan man hides when he comes to the house because he thinks Leo is gonna break through the door and kill him.
It's a boy. Adam and Kristel have a baby due in July and it is a boy. So far everything checks out well which is a blessing. They are extremely happy and have been throwing out some names but I will leave those pronouncements to the happy couple. I like the names and would be happy with either.
The New Money Pit- well I guess we all get curveballs thrown our way. Just in different shapes and sizes. With the deluge of rain we got we found many many leaks in the roof of the house. Many Many leaks. The basement had a spot that water was just pouring in from. Buck and Adam got a temp. fix done there but the only fix for the roof is a new one. Buck, Luke, and Adam plan on tearing off the two or three layers of shingles that are on it now and then Jason will put down the new roof. Our theory of this is , we need help, and if your gonna pay someone, it might as well be family and Jason knows what he is doing so we are glad that at least we can trust the work of the person putting it back on for us.
Our weekend is filling up fast. TOO fast. Hopefully we get everywhere we are suppose to be on time etc. Oh well....better to be too busy than have nothing to do and no place to go.
I mailed out everything that I had to send yesterday. YEAH. I have a habit of not getting things where they need to be on time. I am actually sending out little care packages to Arabella. I bought here some Berenstain Bear books. She loves to have you read to her. She can have people read to her for hours on end....the same book for hours on end [ thumbellina} ...... so grandma and papa are sending out books every few days for her. I think she will love getting her own mail when mommy and daddy are opening theirs. I found this cool bubble envelopes that come in colors so it won't just be the ugly brown envelope.
Can't wait to hear the name of the new baby boy Hawkins. Im so happy for the two of them. they are going to make great parents. I love to see our kids be parents, it reminds me of ourselves when we were in our 20's.
ReplyDeleteif you need help with ANYTHING on the new house dont hesitate to ask, were here to help. Gives us something to do too, instead of sleeping at 8.
Jason is thrilled to have the work and he is good at what he does. Nice to have him in the family he is a great son-in-law. It is so nice to have companions for our kids who are good and treats them well. Overall Life isn't to bad, we have been blessed soooooooo much.

Anthony is a great husband to Holly too, Im glad the Lord sent him her way. He knows how to pick them better than we do. The girls Hannah, Kyndra, Carleigh, have a great dad too.
ReplyDeleteCongrats to Adam and Kristel on a boy! July will be here b/f you know it. I'm surprised everyone's roof didn't leak w/ how much rain you guys got. It was crazy! Jason will do a great job putting on the new roof. He's a good Mr. Fix-It. :)
