Our Dream Home

Well, as promised here are a few pictures of the place. Remember, I'm by no means a certified photographer, so these shots probably don't do much for the place. I'll post a few "befores" of the inside too. Our first goal is to redo the floors...which you can see need some work. Some cleaning, and tlc will do this house wonders. The setting alone is worth it. We were out there last night...and it's so dang peaceful. Jason has big dreams and I know it means an awful lot to him, so we're excited to get out there and get settled. At this point, it looks like we could be moving out there next week...but obviously, only into a few rooms at first, until we get it cleaned, ready to live in. Anyway...enough jabber. Here are some pictures...Enjoy!

PS. Happy Friday!

This is the house from about 50 feet back. Obviously, I didn't do anything with the dates on my camera...so ignore that.  The main entrance is there behind the pole for the security light.



 The next two are the barns that are in the pasture...one is more of a tool shed, the other an old barn with a hayloft. Hopefully there will be a basketball rim up there someday...



And a few of the scenery...remember, there's a HUGE long lane, and tons of yard/pasture...



And finally, a few inside shots -- the first of the living room -- note the nasty pink carpet that will be removed, but the awesome rock wall the will stay. The second, a huge sun porch off the front of the house.



The End!

Get Well Soon, Grandpa Kent

 Here's the best way to share Dad's video. Thank you all so much for submitting the clips. This really made him smile (and say some funny things the first time we watched soon after anesthesia). I think it will be treasured company this evening in the hospital. Thank you for your prayers, your thoughts, for answering the phone calls and lifting Dad up. We appreciate all your love and support.  58E2238E-D2E3-4B38-9FF6-AE1E502ABD14.mp4

Covid ... the end. (Hopefully. Maybe. I really don't know....)

 Almost two years ago, exactly, our world drastically changed. Everyone holed up at home, scared to enter the world and catch Covid 19/Corona Virus. (Except Jason, once he got to feeling better from most likely having Covid before it was a known thing, he just went to work everyday like nothing had changed). The world basically shut down  -- special hours, curbside pick up encouraged, no dining room service only drive through or carryout. If someone coughed or sneezed anywhere near you, you were instantly suspicious. Our parents lived on complete edge and worry, taking in every ounce of information the news was constantly throwing in their faces. It was a time of great uncertainty, lots of information being thrown at us from trusted news sources, social media, and hearsay from those in the medical profession.  We spent March to May just trying to figure out our new life. No baseball. No softball. Lots of time with our animals. Lots of crafts. School from home. Porch drop ...

April - Hey Batter, Batter...

April is always the month that makes us think spring is FINALLY here, because it's starting to warm up, suns starting to shine more, except when we finally get to the baseball/softball fields, it's just as cold as it was in February. Thankfully, Emmalyn had an indoor sport to carry us through the cold of the month, until baseball/softball really got kicked off! Emmalyn tried something new this year and participated in CiVic vollebyall. This is a club program out of Carroll County, and she practiced every Sunday from January through April. Finally in late April she had three play dates. One Saturday we played up at Fairmount, IN. Grandma Jacki, Keaton and I went with Emmalyn, while Dad, Grandpa and Colton cut down some trees in preparation for our spring projects. Emmalyn and Mae Ella did a wonderful job for their team, both rocked their serving and seemed to know the game and keep their cool better than some on the team. The second weekend Dad, Em & Mom traveled to Triton H...
