Gettin' Antsy

Am I the only one who can't wait for winter? I know what you all are thinking, that I am crazy but I love a sunny winter day or even a day that the snow is blowing outside. I don't care what you all say but...

I LOVE winter!!

Canning Frenzy

Who says weekends are for relaxing. We started canning tomatoes at 9am. After three trips back home to pick up more needed supplies and one trip to town in my PJ's (yikes), we finally finished. For those of you who know me, I do not eat tomatoes!!
Chris on the other hand wanted tomato juice.

Since we had all of the canning stuff set up we decided to make dilly beans too, another thing I also do NOT eat!

Thank you Julie and Brian for letting us use your garage for canning. We made such a mess I can't imagine doing this in the kitchen.

Happy Birthday Babe

Happy Birthday Chris!!

Now this is my kinda man. I can't believe he walked in these shoes all night!!

New Windows

We put some new windows in the house. I really love them!! This is the old bay window that was in the living room. We decided to not put a bay window back in. After the window came out we saw alot of nasty hornets nests. Chris REALLY hates hornets. I think he must have had a bad experience with a hornet or bee at some time in his life because he really goes nuts when they are around. I remember one time when I was a kid I was outside with my mom and she was hanging clothes on the line and then a hornet was buzzing around me and she started to chase me with a broom to swat the hornet. I'm sure there is more to the story but this is all I can remember.

This is how the new window looks from the inside and yes, it was raining when we were putting in the windows.

Next came the trim. After we sprayed them with the varnish stuff they had to dry. So where do you put all this trim to dry? Well you lean it all against the house of course!!

Our poor bikes are just yelling at us to ride them!! Not until all the work is done!!

Visit to Munson Bridge

A few weekends ago we finally went to Munson Bridge Winery. I have been waiting to go there for over a year now, and guess what...it only took me 10 minutes to get there!!! Now that is pretty pathetic. I loved it there. I actually asked the owner guy if he rented rooms cuz I wanted to live there. Jannelle and I split a case of wine so now we are in the case club. I am not really sure what this means, but I guess it is quite an honor. We are both wine lovers.
