Fort Lauderdale

We flew into Ft. Lauderdale on Friday so we would not have to worry about delayed flights on Saturday. We checked into a Holiday Inn, had lunch from Panera Bread and hopped on a trolley car for the beach. We buried Samantha in the sand…. took some pictures…. played in the water….. walked on the […]

A Split Tree

  Back in June Steve was getting ready to mow and noticed that one of the trees was split down to the ground. It was hanging on the power line. He called the power company and they immediately sent out someone to look at it. When they arrived it was determined that if they didn’t […]

Hanging out

This is Jenny. She is hanging out on the porch until I get her out to the bench in the garden. She has such a nice face.

Taking Care of the Light

We have a street light in our backyard. It is not our light but it does light up the yard as if it is a football field! With the hot tub the light is right in your face. So Steve decided to take care of the problem.

Electric Work Done

Another thing is checked off the list for the tub arrival. We had to run a 220 line for the tub. The electrician ran an eighty foot line from the power box to the side of the house. We are now ready for the tub to arrive!

Getting ready for the tub

This is where the hot tub is going. This picture was taken in May so the plants are kind of small but now in September they are MUCH bigger. Steve transplanted them. He did a good job!

Delivery Day

The Spa Heaven guys came to install the hot tub today. We got the platform for it to set on instead of putting in a concrete slap or building a deck. This will make it easy if we ever want to take it out. They got the platform down and it was time to bring […]

Our new toy

We went into Kansas City today and bought a hot tub. It has taken me several years to get Steve to do this – I hope he likes it.

Watch Out For The Slicer!!

We have a new slicer at our house. After dinner, Steve was drying the dishes and picked the slicer up……. A trip to the ER and five stitches later his finger was sore for a few days. Since it was healing so well he thought he’d hit his finger with a free flying bungee cord. […]

Tandem Skydive

Holan bought a Groupon to go Skydiving, when Steve found out he bought one too. So on a hot Saturday afternoon we took off to… We waited in the heat until it was our turn… Then there was paperwork to fill out… There were instructions to listen to… It was then time to get ALL […]
