emotional week

It's been an emotional week. My beautiful and 100% lovely niece Lisa and her husband Nate lost their first child. His name was Isaac and he was still born. I'm very sorry for their loss, the loss of my dear sisters first grand child. I'm sorry for the whole family.
My brother is also facing a very hard time in his family. I will not communicate the details, but I'm very sorry for his pain.
On the good side, Philip celebrated his 9Th birthday. He wanted to go shopping at toys are us. I gave him some money, and he ended up only spending a small amount on himself. He gave some of the money to Thomas and some to Sarah. He drives me crazy often, but he often makes me very proud. There is a noble character under all that "boy"!
Juergen and I went out to breakfast this morning. We were celebrating our 17Th wedding anniversary (just 2 weeks late). I would make you sick if I began to write about how much I love this man of mine! I could not thank God enough for him...I know I am blessed!

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.
