Holiday Prep and Changes

The kids are working on their holiday gifts... can you guess what they are making this year??


Pookie will be spending the next two weeks at home and then starting at her new school after the first of the year.  Today we had such fun playing games and just plain messing around.

Day 13,119

"grouting" the block joints
this photo was taken just before this block self destructed, leaving us one block short.  Unfortunately, Lowes around us do not have any more.  Hopefully we can find just one more or can special order just one.  Otherwise it will be spring before we finish our porch. 
The kids hard at work.
The sidewalk "done".
another shot - now for a dry day to paint the scuppers.

Back yard guests - they've flown over a couple times.  Thought they would land this time but it was not meant to be.  They continued on.
