Humpty Dumpty....Sick Child.... and Projects

Well, I will start with the most anticipated part. Bennett portrayed Humpty Dumpty in the school play last Thursday. He was PERFECT (if I do say so my self) He remembered all of his lines and everyone loved his costume. And in perfect Bennett fashion there were a couple funny parts. As you can tell from the photos he loved rubbing his belly. Also, he get a little tired holding all that weight and by the end he could barely stay awake. It was priceless. All the kids did so great. A Real Treat.

Next, is Shelby. My poor little baby has been sick for over a week now. She came home from school last Monday with a fever. She seemed to be doing better by Wednesday and then Thursday she had a fever again, so I took her to the Doctor. She has Strep. So we got her some antibiotics and she seemed to be doing great until Sunday. By midmorning her stomach was killing her. A reaction to the antibiotics I think because she is feeling great today. We are going to start the antibiotics again so the Strep can go away but we will take it slow and with alot of food. It is really hard to see her so sick. She is hardly ever sick and she doesn't want to bother you (kinda like me) You would not know she was as sick as she was.

And Lastly, we are starting some much needed home improvements. I am selling my Lincoln and Jason sold his Mustang to make this happen. ( The Lincoln is still not sold so if you know anybody let me know. It is a beautiful car.) And to begin our improvements we purchased brand new kitchen cabinets. ALL OF THEM!!!! It is so exciting. So hopefully we will slow down here work wise in the next couple of weeks so we can get started. Can Not Wait!!!!

So, that is the update for now. Hope everyone has a great week!!!

We're Floating Away!!!!

So starting Last Thursday morning we got over 8 inches of rain in about 16 hours. These are pics of the front. The first two are at the Shop Driveway and the last two are at the other drive way. You can tell in some of the pics that the water was even higher than it was when I took those pics on Friday morning. The road was completely flooded and the water made it far up on the shop driveway side. Most of the water has receded now but there is still water rushing on the other side of the road. It is something. On a side not we also flooded in the shop. The fram stall and even a little in the paint booth. There was about 2 inches of standing water in the frame stall. When we built both of those additions we built in righ on the ground level and that area just happens to be the natural slope where all the water runs in the front yard. So we are going to have to build a trench to divert the water around the building for the next time we have a torential rain.

It has also become cold here already. Overnight lows in the 30's and daily high's around 60. Needless to say we have the heat on and we had Chili for dinner tonight.

Hope everyone has a great week!!!!
