Kitchen update

I know that many of you (DAD) have been waiting to see how the kitchen has been doing...it kinda stalled for a bit with how crazy things have been here w/ the holidays and getting over colds and stuff...

But here you go.

The island is in. And if you are wondering what the coutertop is made of...Dad got hold of a piece of an alley from the bowling alley that was being dismantled in Morhead City - and yep - we got it and it stayed in the garage till about 11pm one night Timbo had a revelation! It would make a great countertop!!!! How cool is that. So yeah - it is a little "ecclectic" - but I guess it goes along with our "style".

As you can see from one of the pics..we're still working on the tile. We had a little snag when Timbo found one of the girder under the house was completely split in two. When the washing machine was being installed for the first time, evidentally whoever was doing the drilling for the drain, went square through the girder. Over time it just split right in two and we had a pretty good slope going on in the kitchen. A beam and a jack later - and it is getting fixed!!!

Merry Christmas!!!!

Well it is now Christmas afternoon! All the presents have been opened..breakfast has been eaten...THANKS Richard and Blair that was awesome as usual!

Just thought I'd share a few snaps from this morning!

And a little video for your viewing enjoyment!

She lost TWO teeth in one night....

....but we think she swallowed one...She was sitting watching the Grinch...and jumped up because she had been playing with them..caught one between her gum and lip...but couldn't find the other...and of course the carpet she was on was the super-camo-kid-friendly carpet....we hunted - but couldn't find it - so we wrote the tooth fairy a note! I think she'll understand!
