Tradition

The kids are making our traditional Christmas breakfast. Eggs Benedict and fresh squeezed OJ. It's nice when they are the ones cooking, and you get to sleep in! Thomas calls the hollandaise sauce “holiday sauce”. What traditions do you have? And Nicole and I are making Mexican food for tonight. We have guests.

We love Tamales, but we don't always have them as the do take some time to make.

Our traditions are few, we usually see where we will be for Christmas some times we are in NY some times we are In Newburg and sometimes we are in Corvallis.

Now that the Forbes are moving to Albany we maybe able to have some traditions.

We do have a Stuewe Christmas potluck at Tina's the weekend before Christmas. We like taking the girls to story book land and to the pepsi cola light display. Eric and I like going to the victorian home tour in Albany and see the houses decorated for Christmas.

When we see Carmen we go see Brooklyn tabernacle Christmas service.
and a Christmas play on Broadway.

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.
