the beatles/ in my life



Sarah this post is for you.  Hope it brings a small amount of comfort to you, and a smile to your face.

The Good News is...

This was one of those weeks where living in an old house was an inconvenience.  The list of little things that just had enough,  1st the garbage disposal backed up, upon fixing it my basement bedroom flooded (fortunately it stayed to the ceiling tiles), then the kitchen faucet said enough, Luke broke off several pieces of fence post, then I drove over them in the dark  the next morning, shop door broke, garage door opener broke, lets see, I know I am missing some others...well in any case the real kicker was Friday morning my coffee pot broke. 
Here is the good news:  A lesson I have learned from my marriage failing, is that all other somewhat crisis seem to pale in comparison.  Not one of these things really bothered me.  I could manage with the inconvenience, my main concern was cost to fix any of these.  The powers that be all stepped in and I had lots of help fixing all of these things!

Later that night...

We had the privilege of watching my nephews while Du and Ian went on a date!  I do say privilege because we adore these two.  They are so much fun, but boy were the three of us exhausted when we left!



Almost Spring

I wanted to upload these photos last weekend but blogger and I were having issues...again!  My little man is turning into quite the skater, fortunately we live very close to an indoor and outdoor skate park.  Last weekend we couldn't pass the clear sunny day, so we went outside.
I should note Luke allows me to come watch as long as I take pictures and don't cheer for him!

I need to walk my dogs, therefore I am lacking time to blog.  Its been an eventful week, and still processing everything, hope to share it soon.  In the meantime here's  a  few photos from Leavenworth yesterday.  Being up there with all this beauty and fresh air just brings my spirit and soul to life!
