More more and even more!


It is going to be a super long week! We are spending pretty much all day today moving and packing! We spent out first night in the new house last night. I am so ready for all of the moving and packing to be over....plus I am feeling yucky today.
Anyway...I better get back to work!

4 more days


Well today was a little eventful! We got up this morning and NeeNaw, Bpa and I took turns push mowing the yard.The neighbor across the street sharpened the blade for us. He is so nice, he is a 91 year old widower. He gets so excited just to be able to visit with someone.
Then we drove to Lineville to visit with the Horn's. They were doing well! Then we headed back to the house to begin dinner. Well, NeeNaw was getting things ready in the kitchen when we heard an aweful noise. We went in there to check on her and the glass door had shattered! She didn't even touch it with anything! So we cleaned up that mess and called State Farm to leave a message to see if it was covered by our renters insurance....
We had 4 of the college students over for dinner and we cooked so much food! We had a ton left over so we took the neighbor a plate of food and NeeNaw and Bpa visited with him a little.
Well those were pretty much the events of the day! Now we are getting ready for bed.

Pulling my Heartstrings...



We went to services this morning and then came home and had a wonderful lunch! This afternoon we went to the Nursing Home to sing to the residents. There is a lady there that looks so forward to us coming. I can't help but smile when I walk inand see her sitting there! She was wearing black pants and a black shirt, a green scarf and a purple jacket. She had on about 10 bracelets and rings, she wore a huge green bow in her hair and had a red feather hat with her! It is so sweet that she has things like this to look forward to! I am sure she loves getting dressed up to come sing! She is so precious, she just SMILES when we sing songs she knows and she sings along with us....thats one of the moments you cry at when watching life...a good cry though. It is such a heartwarming moment.


On a different note....we only have 5 more days until we close!

Another step...


Well, today we got a new dining room suit! We went with my grandparents to Ashley Furniture in Birmingham and picked us out a table and chairs! We love it. Josh almost broke the chair they had on display in the gallery though...he decided to lean back on the back legs....it cracked! So, then came our first rule...don't lean back in the chairs...lol! Anyway. Then we took my grandparents to dinner at a hibachi grill for the first time, they also had sushi for the first time, eel at that! We had a great time! 6 more days until we are in our new house! I just keep putting off the packing part...:.
