Quiet Days

The past two days have been quiet.

Glen has been working on building the final "wall" around the kitchen/utility room area in the outdoor living space.  The major construction is finished.  There is some caulking to be done, as well as a short run of electrical wire (when Gary gets here)!  Oops, haven't told Gary he has a job!

Speaking of Gary and Evelyn, they left Missouri this morning and made it to Palestine, Texas.  They will arrive here Friday afternoon.  We are looking forward to their company and not just because of Gary's electrical talents! ^^

Darin and Sarah stayed home yesterday (Wednesday) because of the snow, and power outage that affected them. They were without electricity about 12 hours but have a gas fireplace so were able to stay warm. The roads were bladed and they were able to go back to work today.  I think there is more stormy weather headed their way Friday and Saturday. 

Trisha and Jeff and boys have also been "enjoying" the snowfall at their home.  The boys have done lots of playing in the snow. 

We received our mail from our mail forwarding service yesterday.  THANKS for all the Christmas cards and letters.  We enjoy very much reading about you and your families and having photos of our families and friends.  We decided this year between this blog and Facebook there wasn't much news to share with you; we sent very few cards--to the aunties that don't have computers!
