Great Day

My little art girls were here yesterday. I have to say they all painted very well. They love painting Christmas cards - rarely do they do a Christmas theme. They just love picking out some scene and painting on the little cards. We then stick them on card stock like a real card. Since most have been with me for several years, they did these pretty much on their own. I was proud of them.
After the art girls left, Eric came by and brought the top and legs to my island. He got it all put together - puhfect! Now I need some bar stools. You may also notice that the tile is still not finished. That is because it still has not all come in. Dang it. Also, we need to do trim work.And you may notice my big white refrigerator doesn't exactly match the rest of the kitchen. Several years ago, my mother bought this side-by-side for her house. Then she sold her house and bought a new house. The new house required a smaller fridge. We have had this white elephant in our barn for the last few years. It is not exactly puhfect, but it works well. I love being able to get a cold drink out of the door.

Last, but not least, the GGs came over last night. I knew it must be something important for them to interrupt my NCIS night. GBN2 announced that they were going to have a "baby bwuthuh or sistah!" Then they promptly forgot about their big news and went to chase the cats. Pretty exciting, huh - I mean the baby on the way - not the cats.

It must be Thanksgiving, 'cause I'm up early and excited for the upcoming family get-together. We will be in WF, if anyone wants to join us. Have a great Thanksgiving!

You have a great T-Day too!

Deb,
No worry; just a bit of irritation. Yet, what can I do?

Thanks, Becky. I'm pretty excited.

Your fridge dispenses BEER... like what's on the island? I NEED one of those! The kitchen is lookin' right smart, too.

Grats to Bo and his beloved on the new baby. How cool!

Hey Lou, I think the white goes just fine in the kitchen. Bright is good.

That island is bitchin', too! Wish we had enough width in the kitchen to have one.

Lookit, y'all have a blessed & joyous Thanksgiving, okay?
