Fixing up the old place




Since we have been cleaning out closets to make room for the Lewis family, we figured we would paint too. There is still more decorating to do such as curtains but it is a beginning. The first two are the front bedroom with Ronnie's stuff in there and my parents old furniture. The last one is the new trundle bed and the middle, or green room.

Lacey's visit





Lacey Kay came to visit for acouple of days before she went to see friends in California. We took he to the Farmers' Market. Of course, she had no idea what a Farmers' Market is. she got very interested when she saw the water slide and othe activities. It seems like all she did was eat with Grandpa. You know how Bus loves to treat his grandkids to ice cream. He's so generous to eat it with them! I don't know what Lacey is doing with the pole, maybe dancing???? I wasn't around when that was taken.
