Anticipation, not quite finished, but soon...

 Getting started, moving all the .....
 Donated four couches to Habitat
 Wayne starts the painting after laborious discussions at Lowes.
 And then there was stuff...
 and more stuff, decisions by the dozen. Wayne always had one
solution, the answer to it all, "Throw it out!"
 Primer going on

 Meet Beach Blanket Green
 The power is off, working on the electrical.
 Removing light fixtures. Meet Homestead Creme, the other
paint color. Wonder if there is a future career in naming
paint colors?
 Gravity helps.
 One down, second to go.
 Ceiling tiles are down, nice stacking job, Laura.
 The framing was all connected. Lots of anxious moments
 but all came down without noticable injury.
 Lots of noise
Crashing sounds, did we really save money by doing this part
ourselves, was it worth the drama?
No pictures of electricians who installed six lights, you can
see the round holes in ceiling.
The sheet rockers lifted 12 foot pieces, and they have no rotator
cuffs any more, surgically replaced with Bionic parts.

Wayne and the ceiling job

At school and at Mor Mor's Math and Science Club at the library.

 Helping with registration and also got someone to read to her.
Reading with her classmates.

This new family moved in under the gazebo.

Just any day.

Tea Party Time
This girl can dance, especially when she is wearing her skirt.
More finger food please. And of course the kitchen counters are 
loaded with STUFF.
And how was your day?
Help the man blow out those candles! Whose hand is that 
creeping on the table?

Between snow and sleet, Wayne is forcing spring into the gardens.

 This area will be the wild flower garden again.
 Vegetable garden here this year.
 Never any help, but looks cute.

Alli has been bitten by the photo bug.

 Allie quickly learned how to take a picture, look it over,
and push the button to review all that she had taken.
Her comments were, "That's JUST wonderful." and
"That's snargally!" when she disapproved of her shot.
