Delivery for Mom...

U.S. Mattress arrived Saturday morning with Mom's new bed ... Kirk & Jan ordered
the bed for Mom. It looks so comfy...Bob tried to convince the guys to take to his room. Ha! Friday & Saturday our friend, Chris came over and helped Bob carry in
the kitchen cabinets and then they cut the counter top and inserted the sink.The sink and counter look great! Thanks Chris... your help has made this possible. The
light fixtures are up and look very nice. We returned the walk in closet light for
another light that is now much better. Again more things are getting done but yet still much to do. This week we plan to clean...clean...clean again and get the frig
and stove brought in. My list has some more things checked off! Yeah!!!

Shopping Trip to Home Depot...

Over the holidays with Corey & Heather home we all went shopping to Home Depot
and picked out paint colors and supplies. Corey painted the bathroom and it looks
great...the color so refreshing and clean. While shopping they picked out and purchased all the door knobs, knobs for the kitchen pantry & closet and cabinets.
All are in a brushed nickle...which is what all the lighting is finished in. It all looks great. Bob has been very busy...painting and all the other extras. As I
blog this he is downstairs installing the light fixtures. It is looking really
nice...Mom's place.

PictureMate Zoom. Excellent quality photos and so convenient and fast!

Look who came to town...

What a wonderful Christmas we had all together at home. Corey, Heather, Caroline &
Jameson...made it home safely. They were in Atlanta with their flights canceled and with no sure options from Air Tran until Monday...so they got a rental car and drove to Michigan and arrived in the wee hours on Saturday morning.It was so good to have
all the grand children in our home...sharing time together...playing,laughing,eating,
opening gifts and feeling all the excitement and the wonder they bring to life.

Mom's Place...Walls ready to paint

Dust Control Team...cleaned up all the walls and floors. We will do more to
the floors later...we have the plan in the makes with Frank and they will look
great when he puts his talent to work.
Bob & I are going to a Christmas Family Gathering...at Roger & Sherry's today.
So the Bow Tie Pasta & Broccoli with Olive Oil, Butter Garlic Sauce is almost done

Homemade Soup & Bread...

The homemade soup and bread were great...comfort food especially on a cold
winters day...we were snowed in for the Snow Storm and just worked in the downstairs
and stayed home. I got an email from Michelle...after seeing this blog...and she
shared some memories of her childhood snow days in...Romeo, MI...her and her Dad
and Jered making tunnels and forts in the snow...and how warm it was and the her
Mom brought some Hot Chocolate out to them in the fort. Ha! We still have a lot
of snow and we are getting more on Sunday 1-3 inches.
We just came back from...yep...HOME DEPOT...again. Bob, had wood cut for shelves
for the pantry and also got a closet unit for Mom's walk in closet in her
bedroom. We moved STUFF downstairs and covered it and cleaned the floors up some more... getting ready to paint soon.

Let it Snow, Let it Snow, Let it Snow...
