Malad Weekend!

Auds donning a Sunflower that I picked in the yard!

No matter how sore and tired he is, there is always time for "pickin" & "grinnin".


This little knome has ridden in my grocery cart at the local market about three times over the past few months. Finally this week, he was sitting in a grocery cart outside of the market with a reduced price sticker on his butt. I could not resist. He will be making his way to live in a little gal's backyard who lives in Oklahoma, loves to garden and who's name begins with T! C'mon guys you know how knomes love to travel!


Side view of the finished chimney work. Its a bit lighter due to mortar dust.


Hi everyone,


Do you think that this blog will serve as a journal, because I am not a good record keeper and I hate writing in journals. This is much funner and much quicker.



G.L. and I, along with Auds took a trip to Malad to finish the rock on the uppermost part of our chimney. What fun that was. Auds and I took turns holding the ladder while the other moron climbed to the top of it to feed G.L. buckets of mortar, water, rocks and various other items. G.L. did the splits on the peak while he proceeded to slap mortar and cultured river rock to the top of the chimney. We all hurt in places that we never knew our bodies had. Here are a few pics of our finished work up above and a couple of extras of our fun weekend. Miss you all, and wish you could have been there. No.....really......much better you than us.





Love Me

Looks like you couldn't resist that grocery store gnome after all. Would have liked to witness dad doing the splits - what a limber guy -he must be taking his daily dose of coconut oil and clay! Miss you guys too!

You look like you are having so much fun. I agree with you Auntie Deb, this is way better than a journal. With this I get to talk to you all the time, and see you. The house looks great, and I miss you all very much. I love you bucket fulls. Your the best. Give everybody my love.
