Good news, she said yes

My brother Rick asked his friend Amy to marry him. The good news is she said yes. We are all very happy for them both. I haven't been around to meet my new sister (I knew her in high school)...but I've observed her from afar. She seems to be the sweet, spiritual, strong and sensible sort of women I know my brother has been praying for. I'm very impressed at how well she has reached out to my whole family. She isn't the kind that wants to pull Rick away from his life, family and friends. Instead she has sought to fit into all he feels important. I'm certain he also embraces her world. That's really how it should be. I am shopping for airline tickets. I hope to be there this summer to give them my love and support. If you find a good wife, you find a good thing! Congratulation Rick and Amy!

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.
