Look! This is the Silver Maple in our backyard. The little stamens have opened up. These will turn into all those little whirly helicopter thingys you see falling to the ground in the spring. It's here! And I'm so thankful... ~Cathy

The Guest Bedroom Is All Prettied Up!
Whew!!! Two weekends and I'm finished with the guest bedroom painting and most of the re-decorating. There was a lot of re-purposing and re-using most of the items already in the room. I've only made a few purchases and I think the end result came out quit nicely if I do say so myself! Einstein… Continue reading The Guest Bedroom Is All Prettied Up!

Mr. Einstein at 10 Months – Does this carpet make me look fat?
Here he is. I haven't written a monthly report in a couple of months so I'm totally overdue! Einstein will turn 10 months old on the 5th. He's such a great dog!

Greetings from Graceland!
Wow! So much to look at! We visited Graceland today, the home of Elvis Presley. We first toured the house, so interesting but surprisingly normal! For all his flashy stage wear his home was modest (considering all the millions he had!). I wondered why he bought this property when he probably could have built anything… Continue reading Greetings from Graceland!
Greetings from Paducah!
Yesterday we packed up the dog and sent him off to a friend's house, put the cat in her private kitty condo at Paradise 4 Paws and headed south towards Memphis. We are on an All American road trip to visit my Aunt and Uncle, Cousins and 2nd cousins this Thanksgiving but instead of just… Continue reading Greetings from Paducah!
Bob even had his own tombstone for Halloween
I know Halloween happened a few weeks ago but I haven't been able to get some photos off of our cameras and onto the computer for a while because we've used ALL the room on the hard drive! I hate when that happens! So I've been moving files over to an external hard drive and… Continue reading Bob even had his own tombstone for Halloween
