Another 4th of July already here!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Last year at this time we were finishing shingling our roof, this year we are almost done with the kitchen remodel.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I think I am getting to old to do all these young people things!!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We pushed to have the house and the yard in some semblance of order because we will be hosting the family party here.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Needless to say I know were every muscle in my body is and they all hurt!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I will post photos of the kitchen soon, I hope.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
In the mean time wishing you all a wonderful and safe holiday!</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
As many of you know my husband is retired Air Force.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
He served for 20 years.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Our kids where born on the Military base in Las Vegas, Nevada at the Mike O' Callaghan Federal Hospital.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It is a very difficult way of life for families. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We got married late in life and after one month of marriage my husband was deployed to Panama for 6 months. Single Again?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We thought we were in the clear for a while but three months after our daughter was born he was deployed to Saudi Arabia for 6 months that tuned into closer to 8 months. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This was heartbreaking for him to think of having to leave us behind and missing all of the "firsts" our daughter would be doing in her first year of life. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
He came home and could not get enough time with our daughter!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Thinking yet again we were in the clear for a while....he got orders to deploy to Turkey.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
A country he loves but leaving us behind one more time was next to devastating to him.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
He was gone for 7 months.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
He retired from the Air Force March of 2001 and when September 11 happened we thought for sure he would be required to re-enlist.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Luckily for us it did not happen.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
As Memorial Day rolls around every year I think of his sacrifice in having to leave us and head over seas to a world unknown.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We were so lucky because he came home safe.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Many do not return and I think of them and their families--<b>HUGE--</b>sacrifice for us in the name of freedom.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b>THANK YOU</b> is not near enough to convey what these soldiers have done for us but, </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Thank you!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Wishing all of you a safe and happy Memorial Day!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Enjoy,</div>

Where does the time go?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I am not sure what happened this last 6 months. It was a roller coaster of busy-ness. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It looks like the same starting this new year.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Thinking of goals......well that will have to come a bit later. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Maybe one could be a bit more dedication to this poor ignored blog.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
My wish for you this new year is PEACE, LOVE, and JOY!!!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Best to all of you in the new year!</div>

<span style="text-align: center;"> June was a crazy busy month here in our little piece of the world.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We stripped the shingles off the house and shored up all the "soft" spots.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This equaled five trips to the dump and one to the metal recycling plant. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We got all the water proofing down on the roof just in time for a HUGE rain storm to hit! A down pour like this in a few minutes scares us desert dwellers.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We survived but many houses around us had flooding in their basements.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
What a huge project.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
In between all this my daughter graduated from High School. </div>

As you can see from all the cords around her neck she earned many awards. She makes us proud.</div>

With any project around here, there is always a Sunday you have to get on the roof with your Sunday best on to fix something on the roof....glad he did not do a header off the roof. It was worth going to church after this!!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So in between all this madness there were birthdays, my niece's wedding, Father's Day, Scout Camp, out of town visitors....you get the idea. The list is long.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Yes, even had a couple of custom orders to do.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This is just one of them and I love how this turned out!!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Now do I dare hope that July might be any slower and a bit more relaxing?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I don't think so by looking at my calendar!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Hope you all are enjoying your summer at a slower pace!</div>

We were suppose to be re-shingling our roof this weekend with some help from my brothers but with all the rain we have had we had to postpone doing the roof.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We will be having a picnic with family here.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I guess the roof will be done over the coarse of the summer.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It always comes down to the best laid plans!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Enjoy your holiday,</div>
