June 22, 2008


These flowers are called wave petunias. Last year we walked by a house that had these and they were so beautiful. I finally found out what they were and decided to plant some. So far they are doing well. They are fed Miracle Gro's Bloom Enhancer once a week and they stay pretty happy!
Today is Kent Ficklin's birthday and my mother's wherever she is in heaven. I hope that she knows we still think of her and love her.

June 21, 2008 New Kitchen Makeover


This is the finished look of our new kitchen. We are still getting used to it because it is so different to us. We got things back on the walls and it was nice to have it back in order. We will enjoy the new look.

June 19, 2008


We just received an announcement from Mark and M'Linda Holmgren on the announcement of their new baby girl, Jalisca. We are so glad that she is here safe and sound. Congratulations are in order for the proud new parents.

We have had our kitchen in array for the past 2 weeks. First, we had a new counter installed and got rid of the green sage formica one that was pretty much dictating the decor of the entire home. This week we are painting. We went with a soft tan on top and red on the bottom with a border inbetween. This is pretty wild for two old conservative people. Before and after pictures will follow when the project becomes complete.

This is my first time at blogging, so I am testing the waters. I hope to learn more about how this works.
