Long time no see

K.C. and Kayleen. Friends since Kayleen babysat the kids way back in 1996 ish.

Bob and Mike! Two awesome men of God!

Kayleen and Eileen. Friends and sisters in Christ and lots more since kayleen was 11. K.C. is currenty 11 so its kind of fun to see the domino effect continue.

Patti and Eileen! Great friends in the Lord!

Had the chance to catch up with some great friends this past weekend! We may not see you often but we are still close in heart! Thanks for all your wisdom and mentoring and great conversations throughout the years! Still will never forget running thru the Kettle Morraine trails!

Outside projects

Well, I've been working hard outside to spruce up the place. And of course, I'm not alone, everyone has been pitching in too. KC and I managed to completely clean out the garage. Mike re-seeded the backyard AGAIN and we finally have grass where the old mud form under the swimming pool was. KC arranged the patio chairs and table and stepping stones. Taylor sweeps up and helps with the lawn and garbage and I have been weeding and trimming bushes.

I should have taken before photos- but the afters are just as satisfying to me. Of course I'm not done yet- I still have some weeding to do and alos want to paint some things, make some things and put out some flowers!

But here's where we are at so far.





Still need to weed this part obviously! (but it was the closest to a "before" picture as I could get)
