Weekend Projects

Before the destruction happened

We have had a break in our busy schedule the past two weekends to get little things done around the house. As Kyle and Krystin are doing weekend projects to make their house beautiful and presentable, Scott and I are destroying things around our house for the same goal. As you walk in the front door there was a half wall that had a bookshelf in it. Very 70's look about it. Well it is no longer there. Scott took some of his tools and took it out. It makes the area look so much more open and inviting!

After the wall was taken out

Remember this half wall that was taken out a while ago? Well we now have the electrical taken out of the wall. This is what it looked like before, very ugly with the wire hanging over our chair. Dad came over and disconnected the electricity and we no longer have this hideous contraption to look at. Scott also got to use his sawzall to cut through the conduit. He was very excited to make this happen!

Rory and Mason



Mason the ball slut

Mason is a 3 year old golden retriever that we have watched many times. He is Scott's co-workers dog. They were away for the weekend so we had a play date with him and Rory. Now Mason LOVES balls. I don't even know if love is a strong enough word as to the type of want and pining he does for them. We were in the basement looking at a few things and the football on the shelf caught his eye. So there he sat pining, wanting, patiently waiting for it to move so he could have a chance to get it.



Rory getting the best of Mason

Rory and Mason had a lot of fun playing together. Once Rory settled down and Mason quit being an old grumpy man they played tug of war, of course ball, and enjoyed running outside together!

Rory is a star student! She passed her puppy exam and recieved this medal in recognition! We are so very proud of her! We now have her in advanced obedience classes so we will continue to work with her and build on our current training.

Rory our star puppy!
