Garage Project

It's about time we finish our garage. I'ts only been in process for about 5 years. Yesterday Mark & Jim decided to finish putting up the ceiling and we called Joseph to see if he was aviable to help later in the day. He came at about 4:00 and Marie & The girls came alittle later and the guys got right down to work and got over half of it done. The did stop for a supper break and got right back to it. Then this am Jim & Mark finished it and I went & got some paint, and Mark is out there painting right now. Work is alittle slow right now for both of the boys, so they just wanted to get it done. I hope I like the color I picked out, taupe/gray. I want to put up a coat rack inside the door for hats & coats and maybe a new rug, and we'll be good to go. I have been keeping busy just doing route and a few extra runs for my Amish neighbors and making Swiss Tea for the boys.







Emma & Mattie played alot last night with the dolls
that the girls used to play with and the clothes.
Remember this doll Michele, it's yours you know. Emma
thought that the privates on this doll were really something. Didn't want the boys to see them. They were pretty funny last night.

Is there something wrong with the little girl on the right? I have a little boy with autism and he looks very much like this little girl.

No, she just as normal as can be, just a bad picture.

Looks like a job! Mark said that he hopes to have it done in the next few days. I'm sure you'll all be glad when it's finally finished!

Hope you are having a good week!

Donna,
Looks like a fun project! Did it get painted? How do you like the color? I am going to have to have Marie teach me how to make the Swiss Tea! Sounds good for these cold days we're having!
Always enjoy reading your posts!!!

The ceiling has 2 coats of paint but the walls are still bare. Things got too busy to spend too much time out there as we thought we might. I like the color so far, but haven't put the wll color so far.

Hey Donna--
I'm catching up on my blog reading. Erik had an away game this evening that Allie and I didn't go to. I wanted to tell you that we had one of the apple dumplings at Henry and Julies last Sunday. Yummmmmm!!
