Happy 15th birthday sweet Nicole!

Today is Nicole's 15Th birthday. She is nearly 6 feet tall and 12 feet wonderful!!! We celebrated her birthday with a family breakfast. Tonight she will celebrate with her friends. They are going to see a movie and have dinner in the old town of Heidelberg. The years have gone by too fast. Do I realize it will not be long until she goes away to College? Why yes I do...and it freaks me out!!!! But I'm not thinking about 3 years from now, I'm trying to enjoy today. Today I am so blessed to have this child! All she could wish for was to go back to Mexico next year. As a gift, Juergen and I gave her some seed money towards her trip. This time Juergen plans to take her. Hopefully we can take some other kids from our youth group to Mexico next summer. When she finds the time I hope Nicole will write down some of her thoughts about her trip. For now I wish my baby a very happy 15Th birthday. I could not be more blessed, you truly are a gift from God!

Olivia is born

My niece had a beautiful baby girl named Olivia Rose (Beautiful name). Everyone is very excited and thank God healthy! Congratulations to the whole family! Hugs to my sister Shelley who is now a proud grandma for the 2nd time. My sister Dianna has 6 grand kids (I think). My brother and I are too young for such an blessing. At least our kids are too young. I'm going to have to wait to be called grandma. Here is a cool picture I took off Shelley's blog. It shows Eric (the tired but proud grandpa) Lissa with her first daughter Charlotte, and then a sleeping Olivia Rose. 3 generations in one shot. How fast life goes by! How beautiful life can be!

painting the garage

Rick goes home in the morning. I'm sure he will be happy to see his kids again. 3 weeks is along time to be away. The time has passed so fast. It's been really wonderful! So wonderful!!! We may stay up all night, that way he can sleep well on the flight. Hopefully his jet lag will be less this way! Anyway, here is his painting. It turned out more then good! I really love it...just like I love my brother! We will have to do this again soon!

chicken coop idea

Why not start with an IBC and cut a hole for the door? You could build closed laying boxes into it, and something for the chickens to roost on. Put some straw or saw dust on the floor. You could add vents to the side for air. If it sat inside a chicken run that you can walk into, the chickens could be safe, dry and happy. I have an extra IBC. Maybe this could be my chicken house? I bet I could even plant the outside of it with mud and grass for extra insulation and good looks.
