Still Here.

Well, here it is the last day of the month, and I have only posted three times; so sorry. We have had quite a busy month. My parents were here for a week at the beginning and Brian's parents were here earlier in the week - probably will come back again today on their way home. Brian is doing well in his Greek class this semester, he only has two weeks left! Hope everyone has a wonderful Fourth of July holiday. I will be back soon with more to say. :-) Fireworks picture is from the Derby Festival in May.

The Prestons are Here!

We are happy to have the Prestons here with us for a visit/ genealogy people hunt. We went downtown this afternoon. Here are a couple of pictures.

Gnomes and more

Sorry for the lack of posts. I thought I would put something up for Jillian so we don't lose our vast readership. These were taken at a recent visit to a statue company - so I'm told. Every one should have something this fun in their yard.











And a gaggle of gnomes. Can anyone guess what the gnomes are holding under their arms?

Happy Belated Birthday!

Blogger was down most of the day yesterday. So....

HAPPY 60TH BIRTHDAY MOM PRESTON!!




We love you and hope you had a wonderful day!

Good Morning

Brian began school yesterday. He is taking Greek - last summer he took Hebrew. Hopefully Greek will be a little easier for him since he has some experience in the languages now. He told me last night his teacher suggested they study about four hours everyday!

My parents are coming next week for a short visit. My dad has business in Nashville midweek; he is going to drop mama off here, so we will have some time together. B's parents will also be here sometime at the end of the month; we are looking forward to their visit.

As for the art this week (I use the word 'art' very loosely :-) - I got out my sewing machine on Sunday and started practicing a little. - I will post on that a little later. I have been inspired by this website - all handmade items being sold by their makers. There are a couple very talented people here. - more later. ~J
