SPRINGTIME


Tomorrow is the first day of March and I associate that month with Spring. Our house is coming along good, for the winter we have had. Here is a picture of the bottom deck that has just been started. The bump out that you see at the end will be the guest bedroom door. Yes, our guest have a private access to the lake. Any takers?

The above picture is looking toward the other end. If you came out of the guest family room, this is where you would be. This is going to be a wonderful view.

MAN CAVE

THE MAN CAVE Ahh yes, the infamous man cave is shaping up by the minute. Here is a rare look of the inside. tehe

The above picture shows that the cave has two rooms. This has been a passion of Phil's and he is proud of it. He and our future next door neighbor have been working every minute that they are not at work.

As you can see from this picture, Phil is using barn lumber and pine boards to cover his walls. The floor is an 'unsightly green linoleum', but I am the wrong sex to have privy to his plans for the floor.

AND FINALLY, Saturday we traveled with Lauren and the family to her AAU gymnastics Competition. There were 4 schools from Cincinnati, One from Louisville, Indiana, and others. About 30 different studios participated. Everyone competed in three divisions. Trampoline, Double-Mini Trampoline, and Floor excerises. Our Lauren got 2nd Place on Trampoline and Double-Mini Trampoline. which was fantastic.
HOWEVER, SHE WON FIRST PLACE ON THE FLOOR EXCERISES.

SAME-O-SAME-O

That is what our weather here has been like since my last post, so I won't bore you with more snow pictures. Our contractor hasn't worked any this week and that is the first time that it has been too treacherous to travel to the site. I have been busy however, I picked my ceiling panels for the basement today from the Armstrong web site. I also picked out our door hardware. And lastly, I decided on the vent-free gas logs.

I sure am ready for spring.
Miss you all.
