Kardia visit

Enjoying playground here in Cookeville.

Look out Makario ... lots of big sisters.

A new year - new babies and new opportunities - I pray yours has started well.

Ready for spring ..

It's cold outside - we got in the mid 30's last night - okay, enough of this - back to warm weather!
 Another great week - lots of stuff going on - this next week Cindy heads out to Oregon for awhile and help in birthing babies. Adele is on the way - woohoo! #10 - a great number.
If you need paper plates colored, I've got the gang for you!
Have a great Saturday.

Great fall weather

Well the grass is slowing down to one mowing a week or more, the last mowing of the year is in the local fields and they're making the round bales up, pumpkins are for sale everywhere, fall is in the air.
A long but good week - bidding lots of stuff and several new projects coming on line. God is good!

Gave a great weekend.

Ready for Fall

Greetings - this has been a long summer - work-wise, weather-wise, busyness-wise - I'm ready for a break! Wait, we've got 2 babies coming up - oh well, we can rest next year - ha!
Hope you are doing great!

Cooler weather

Good morning - we've been having cool evenings and not too hot days for the past week - very pleasant.  Well, home alone again - no grand-kids, family or in-laws - if you're bored, come on by!

A good week behind us and looking forward to another one ahead.  Can't believe September is upon us.

Love you all!

Cousins

Good morning - hope you had a great week. A bit slower this past week before a couple of busy weeks ahead of us.
Enough sunshine and rain that when we mow every 5 to 6 days it feels like we've waited too long.
Cindy's budget passed last week for the county - woohoo! No new taxes!
A couple of errands today, work on SS lesson and getting ready for a new week. Looks like we're staying in the 80's today - we have unusually hot and very humid weather the past month or more.
Have a great day!

Sunndy sunny Sunday

A warm but nice day here in Cookeville - a great church service and we're off to a great new week.

Enjoying having Kaireia around - grandma spoils her all day and I straighten her out every evening.

Have a great week!

God is good!

Dog days

Well, 90 degree weather with high humidity does not make it very pleasant for outside activities.

Enjoying Kaireia with us this week - she's sure growing up. (Picture of Kardia who visited a few weeks ago)

Still traveling to Nashville and locally at least once a week - bidding on lots of stuff, just need something to break - that's construction!

Cindy has her county budget done - just need it voted through now - hope all goes well.

Hope your summer is going well - love you all!

Rain, rain and more rain

Well, a few days of rain with extreme rain yesterday and last night. Last night we saw raised water in the yards around us higher than we've ever seen it before.

I'm off work today - a long weekend - hopefully the rain holds off some.
Be safe!

Rainy day

Good afternoon - a rainy and overcast day here - but we sure need the rain. At least we mowed last night and got it out of the way.

No big weekend plans - probably some errands and to-dos in there somewhere!

Be safe!

Home again, home again ...

Greetings - we had a great trip to Indiana and back - always good to see family - always good to get home again.
Just got home from Baxter where we've wrapped up a custom home for a client. About 8,000 square feet plus decks, porches, patios, etc.
Finally getting a bit of much needed rain too - woohoo!
Love you all!

I love summer

Greetings - I feel like I'm behind in everything - is that just life? It'd be nice to feel caught up at least once in awhile.

A wedding this afternoon and up to Indiana for the weekend to see Cindy's day. Long weekends are nice.

We're still way behind on rain - one major rain in the past few weeks - we've got a yard this is looking mighty dry.

Well, gotta go - out to breakfast - have a great weekend.

Dry bones

Good morning - another week flown by, almost 3 weeks without rain here - our grass is browning out. Some forecast but it keeps passing us by.
A good week - lots going on.
A good friend from San Antonio, J.C. Henderson passed away last week. We hadn't talked for about 6 months - will sure miss him.
A few errands today - pray for rain!
Have a great day - love you all.

Worn out ...

Well, we had Rachel and her kids for the last week plus a lot of other stuff - great times and we're flat worn out! A few errands this morning and then we need to mow once the grass dries out - some rain yesterday and more projected today so we'll catch it hopefully between showers.
Have a blessed day!

Spring is in the air

 Good afternoon - a long day yesterday working for the Republican party - today a funeral over in Spring City and we're off and running - a brand new week before us!

Rachel and the crew coming over this Friday for a few days - time to spoil some babies!

Have a great week.

Is the cold behind us??

Another cold week - brrr! What does it tell you when 30 degrees feels warm?
This coming week back in the 40's again and maybe a touch of 50 degrees - can hardly wait.
We're up to our ears here in busyness - if we can get the next few months behind us it may get a bit normal again.
Enjoy your Saturday.

No snow Saturday ...

Well, I can see the ground today - looks mighty nice. And there is this yellow ball up in the sky that looks kind of familiar as well. Our weather forecast shows some snow within the next 10 days again, but we're ready for warm weather.

I hope your week has gone great. After last week's snow and ice storms, this has been catch up week - meetings, travels, depositions, etc. Ready for some kind of normal again.

Love you all - enjoy your weekend!

Back to normal ....

Well, a quiet Saturday at home - that hasn't happened in weeks and weeks. Off to breakfast in a bit, a few errands and then home to review tomorrow's lesson for church and CRASH!
Have a great weekend and happy valentine's day!

We've got sunshine

Good morning - what a dreary winter we've had so far - sunshine today and it looks great! We're even supposed to get in the 40's - a real heat wave!

A good but busy week - another week where I was out of town almost every day - now for the paperwork!
