The Jury Is In

Wow, thank you for your input on the dining room.  I can't tell you how much I appreciate you taking the time to come by,  examine the pictures and give me the excellent advice that you did.  I am in your debt. 

After taking in all the great ideas and suggestions I have come to the conclusion that it will stay a dining room. 

 

I'm telling you I had to state my case and re-state my case and then pout a little and then be made fun of for said pouting and then argue my case one more time before he finally gave in.  

Whew, that was a hard one. Seriously he's never cared like that before.  I didn't know how to act ... well that's not true I do know how to act and act I did.  Yea, I'm a little embarrassed but it's like I told him, "I hate this room so much that is dripping from my mouth."  Ooh, that's disgusting just hearing it back again, must be what finally got to him.  I am afraid that I have stepped across a line that will come back to haunt me.

  

Here's the deal; I'm moving the shelves in the bedroom (please Lord, let them work out in the bedroom) texturing the walls, painting and glazing.  Ooh it's going to be so exciting.  I can't wait to get started.

  

First though it's off to Virginia to see the newest member of the family.  We have had three little girls born into this family this year.  And the grandkids so far think they have something going, I get the feeling that these three may rule the roost.  Here's a few shots at Christmas time with the two oldest of the three youngest. ?  

Miss Hadley

Miss Anah

The three oldest, Caleb, Tyler and Sarah

My oldest, D

Kurt, Kristen and baby H

This was the first time that Anah and Hadley met.  It went fine, Anah got the first licks in.  She smacked Hadley in the face and poked her in the eye.  Just setting the stage for later I guess.  Lordy, this is gonna be fun.
