FINISHED FOR NOW....

I think we stand out in the neighbor in a new way....Jeff has finished the outside for now as he said. I think it looks real nice like the house can breath better after being freshened up abit The changes being green tan paint and pokie bushes in front GONE thank you Jeff. new red on front and side window sills front porch new WHITE trim and pilliars the porch floor was refinished this summer. stained and sealed he did have green paint left overs from the past he had to add to the circles on the front he has had alot of input from passer-bys from our hood they like it so if we get the yard under control next year we should be up there..the neighbors might have to pull out the paint brushes to keep up. NO MORE GREEN PILLIARS:-) okay Ray if you look at this you have to say something.........I want input....the house is saying "How do I look"? I'm wondering if Jeff is going to take those work clothes with him same thing he had on 10/24 lol and about every other day too.

Why do some projects make you happier than others????????

Does anyone remember this??????One of my many treasures. I have had this stool/ottoman for around 23 years. It belonged to my GREAT grandmother Mamma Grace Oral Spears Weed Chapman (had to enclued Weed because that is my line) she gave it to me saying I should take it because I had so many little butts (4 kids) along with it came a piece of fabric she had she was going to recover it but never did...the fabric was nice old fair good condition piece that she had cut off the back of her couch (it had always been against a wall so was clean and had no wear.. I not sure what she threw away if anything. because at the time when it came to part with couch her mind saw something useful so she saved it with an idea in her head then planted the seed with me. I used it and usally had it covered with something but it has served me well. So I discided to follow through with her plan. little to my suprise was when I removed the bottom covering and saw inside to it's unique design in it's construction again I say she made it and I would pretty much guess the supplies came from her scrap wood pile piece of who knows all nail together covered in ( if you look through the knot hole and cracks) what appears to be an old wool quilt and handed picked cotton on one side there was a hand drawing of what I'm guessing is her plan sketch out for something. All of that thrilled me be yond words It made me appreciate her more than ever she was quoted once in the chickasha star you can always make something out of nothing. Indeed you can Mamma I'm glad I have this merger piece of furiture it's worth more to me than money can buy but to someone else I'm sure it's a piece of junk and long ago would of made it's way to the junk pile. I'm glad I found the hidden treasures inside of the woman that spent her life making the best of what she had making something out of nothin' and all her needs were met. I was very glad I finilly finished it I must say I think it was I of the easiest things i ever did it was kinda of weird because all I had to do was cut the top piece folded reminder of the fabric in half cut it sewed 1/2 in seams and it fit perfect to the top with out any measuring cutting at all never have had that happen and I'm guessing I probably never will again either it worked perfect no measuring Is that normal? Has that ever happened to anyone else or was I being guilded by the knowlegde she hadalready giving me thanks for all that I have from my Mamma

Okay I''ll make it easy!!!!!!!!

here's a before shot.....now can you see the differents???????

CAN YOU SEE ANYTHING DIFFERENT???????

NOT FINISHED YET BUT TELL ME WHAT IS DIFFERENT?????????

Isac

Oh what do I say about Isac my oldest grandson.........so many thoughts go through my head....but most of all I'm so thankful that we have Isac he has blessed us all I think....he was the sweetest baby and I'm thankful I had so much one on one time with him in his early years. things change years go by and Isac is growing up I've realize that at 11 1/2 we are kinda the same size I have an inch or two on him in height but I
m thinking he may have past me on the weight thing...I realize that in another 11 1/2 years Isac will be a young man out of hs could be on or returned from a mission could be married could have a 5 year old we just don't know but I'm anxious to see what or who he becomes..some might think he is a stinker or something.....but I think he is one of the best kids I've seen these days..I see kids his age and again I'm thankful for Isac.....he's just a GOOD kid..I think he has been giving the tools and love that he needed to become who he is.....I thankful that Isac was the 1st grandchild he took me to the next step I my life the best place I've ever been a Weema......what I could say about these loving grandchildren that God has so graciously giving me....the one thing I can say is I've never in all my life felt so loved as I am now what a reward it is to be a parent because if you are lucky you will become a grandparent some day like me......I have always loved my kids so much.......so can I just say Thank You for all these grandkids.....oh I got side tracked......Isac.......I love you and I'm so glad you are in our family the 1st grandchild.

Without words..........

These two boys being 26 days or so apart in age being around each other nearly every week since birth, I have watch their enter actions I think they communicate without words. so many times they just set by each and do their little thing last week at sams party I took this pic of will watching mack as he played with his toy as you see will saw me with the camera right away he poised as you see for the shot and then without words he turned to mack turning him around for the shot together will was into it with all his heart after every shot he would have look at it not quite approving of mack not looking he would try again to get mack to look so this is what I got and with the nod of approval from will the photo shoot was over all without words
