Mom has made it back from Hawaii. She and her friend Sharon arrived back in the Tri-Cities on Tuesday, Sept. 30th. They had a wonderful time but were very glad to be home. She says that pictures are on the way, but I'll see how that goes.
Both Clay and Sam injured their knees in football. No official word yet on the "damage" but it happened on the same day, same game. One before halftime and one after. Go figure!
As many of you know, Alice works in a very volatile business...housing. So far things are holding their own here and we hope that continues, or gets better. They are currently looking at additional financing to start some new communities, but with the financial market the way it is, she's not sure how all of that will flesh out. So we keep praying and believing in the good. If things turn south, we may be looking for a double-wide somewhere in the hills, growing our own vegetables (corn)and raising cows, pigs and chickens. What a hoot that would be!
The traditional "girls weekend" is coming up soon so she is looking forward to that. Which obviously means there's a "boys weekend" at the same time which Eli and I are looking forward to! :)
We are doing some fall yard work. Hoping to get grass were there ain't none and at the same time, we decided to redo the front bushes. Below is a picture of the "before", as it looks now. We'll let ya know when we have something green in there. That should be late this week or first part of next. The objective is to make a more gradual slope from the house to the yard and add some smaller and more colorful items to accent the front. Based on what we've selected, it should look nice.
Well, we'll keep ya posted.
Love to All
Alice and Norm
