The Chimney

(The house in March)

We knew we wanted the chimney to go!

It was definitely an eye sore and a major obstacle in the inside of the house.

I think we (I use "we" loosely, as the extent of my participation that day, was taking these photos) were dreading this project, figuring it would be quite the process to remove the monstrosity.

However, Greg and Cary had it all out within 2 hours.

Yay!

It's gone!

To see the before pictures of the outside of the house go here. To see before pics of the inside of the house, go here.

Hanks Picnic

Ok, I'm totally prepared for everyone to hate these photos.

Bring it on.

LOL

☺

It was our Hanks bi-annual get together this last weekend.

It was hot.

I was hoping to get a close up of Isaac, but it never happened.

I love going through my photos and saying "Man, I didn't get a picture of "so and so" or "so and so".

Did I mention it was hot?

Luckily, for me, we did a group shot this year, so everyone is there.

Whether or not you can actually pick them out is another matter.

Getting ready for the group shot.

Father's Day!

We were gone on Father's Day,

so after Ella's party,

 I told Cary that his late Father's day gift was in the back of the van.

He's always saying he want's a cruiser, so now he has one. ☺

Aidan and Ella were pretty excited about it too.

I just need to get me one now.
