Old friends are so special!

I just got to meet my best friend from high school in Heidelberg for coffee. We haven't seen each other for years. She and her husband are taking a bus tour around Europe. One of those 8 countries in 5 days kind of things! Sounds like allot of time in a bus! But I wanted to cry for joy when I saw her! A little bit of Corvallis in Germany! How wonderful to see an old friend.
Juergen came home early so I could go meet my friend. He took the kids to the soccer practice. Sarah and Thomas both loved it. Phillip didn't like it. He wants to play guitar and take Judo. So I need to figure out Philip's after school program. It looks like Sarah is set for activities. Thomas looks like he will be accepted on the team, but it isn't sure yet. One of the other 7th graders from his school is on the team. So maybe that will also lead to a school friend? Juergen didn’t get to pick up the trampoline. Oh well. It’s been a very full day with good surprises.

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.
