Here are pics from today. The tile guy, Sammy, is coming back tomorrow to grot and seal the tile. Then Tony our handyman will come and hook up the sink, oven, hood, and microwave.

Hopefully, my next post will show the finish product. So far I'm loving it!!!

Kitchen Remodel Before Pics






We are finally updating our kitchen. I'm so excited to have a new kitchen, especially a new microwave.

Weekend in Almyra









This past weekend we went up to the Hillman's house in Almyra, Arkansas. Getting there was an adventure. Friday it started raining and sleeting on our way up there. By the time we got to Little Rock the roads were starting ice over. We saw over 20 accidents and were going 5 mph through the city. It usually takes us 41/2hours to get there but this time it took us almost 8!!!. When we finally got to Ryan and Karlyn's I got out of the car and screamed!!. The boys were really good considering they were tried of being in the car and we hadn't ate dinner yet.
We had a great time up there. The guys killed over 30 ducks. The girls and the kids hung out and enjoyed each others company.

STAR SIGHTING-Jack Black


I just had to post this little bit of news. Tonight we all went out to eat and then decided to return some curtains to Target. While we were there I decided I needed some rubbermaid containers to get our guestroom closet organized. Me and the kids were looking at some containers when I this woman walked by asking where the hangers were. So I politely directed her towards the hangers. As I was walking to the end of the aisle, this man walked by and I looked at him and then I looked again. I then realized it was Jack Black (Nacho Libre) at the same time I saw Dan walking towards me and mouthed "thats Jack Black behind me". I wanted Dan to go up to him and shout out "NACHO", but we left them alone. This is my first star sighting in Shreveport. For those who don't know, Shreveport is becoming a very popular place to flim movies. The new movie Mad Money thats out right now was shot here. So needless to say, you never who you'll run into at Target.

Bowling




Last Saturday we took Grant bowling. We tried to go on New Years Day, but all the Bowling Allies were closed. So we promised him we would take him on Saturday. He had so much. He had to pick a yellow ball since it's his favorite color! He did really well 79 and 82 points. On the other hand, I didn't do so well. I believe we will be making another trip to the bowling alley soon.

Micah's Dedication




We had Micah dedicated this past Sunday. My mom gave him this outfit for Christmas. I had another picked out, but it was so hot on Sunday that this outfit was better. Micah slept during the whole thing. Grant was so well behaved. He stood up there like a big boy. I just love our church. Broadmoor is such a great place for families. I love our pastor because he's going to tell you like it is and he never strays from the Bible.
