Work party

The guys and the new toy
Harlan and Hayden took the pressure washer outside to try it out on some stuff.  It's going to be a handy little thing to have around when it comes to cleaning off the sidewalks, driveway, even the rock porch. I wonder if it does windows?





Courtney is going to plant my porch containers with impatiens They are purchased and ready to go.  Garrett looks ready to help plant when the time comes.

Play Days

Cherise sent me a picture of Henry and Anabelle playing at an indoor place near their house.  They are soooo cute! At the time I received the photo I was at Just 4 Kids, a resale place near us, with Gar-bear. He was playing too.

Ready for some little people
I picked up two of these mini adirondack chairs. They are so cute and quite stable. I think a meal or two on the porch is in order when Henry comes to town.

What's in a name?
When Harlan and I got married we received our last name on a plaque as a present.  Harlan had his name plaque already, so we ordered mine. Our family tree began. Each of the kids got a plaque right after they were born.
This company researches the meaning of the names and their spiritual connotation. The also print a Bible verse on each one pertaining to the meaning. I sort of life verse for the individual name.
About a month ago I looked into getting these for Jess and Joylynn's family. The company that makes them has changed it's name but is still in business.
I placed an order and they came in this past week.
Joylynn opened the box on Wednesday. She and Jess were touched to have them.
I can't wait to see where they hang them.
The company started in 1972 and the website said they now have the 4th generation of families purchasing these for their homes.

Oh that is so cool!! I always liked that wall :) I think that the Reardon collection is very sweet and fits them quite well!

Pressure washers are fun toys. Definitely one of those spoon-full-of-sugar things ;)
