getting there....



Stephen got color number 3 around most of the windows and doors Monday, holy CATS the place is looking soooo good, better than we imagined!  We hear that it will rain today, so there may not be any progress.  He has to finish the garage and then do the FOURTH color!  Yes, one more, for the foundation, decks, fence....

You will recall, of course, that our beagle penny spends Monday morning volunteering at a senior center...jumping into laps and kissing faces and wiggling around....Penny is not terribly bright or capable or obedient, BUT SHE IS adorable and wonderfully sweet natured and loooooves people :)
Bottom photos show my old pal Kerry who works there and has beagles of her own and leads us around to visit everybody on Mondays....

  3. Pretty colors on that house. Must feel good to get what you want after all those years.

    Penny is a perfect people person. How sweet. Looks like she's more than welcome to offer wiggles and kisses.

  6. Penny is such a little lover. I know how sweet she is -- my boys loved her!
    My dad told me about the dog they have at his assisted living facility. It's part outdoor guard dog (hello, Tucson) and part friendly sentry indoors (especially at night). In all of my childhood, we had a dog for just 2 months, and I think my dad always wanted one.

    I bet you make it such a special day for the residents when you bring Penny to visit with them!
