The Bathroom Finale'





The bathroom has reached the completion stage. We are so excited! I know Phil is! Here is the final product. We changed the light fixtures. We will eventually change the faucet. We textured the walls and painted. We beat up the old tile and put down new. Have started changing out the old drawer pulls. (you might can see the silver one. that is the new one) I scrubbed the cabinets with Restore-a-Finish which really brought the lustre of the cabinets back! Whew!!! The picture just does not do it justice! By the way, I still need to hang the picture! That's me sneaking around the corner taking the picture.

HOMECOMING!!


Sara was invited to go to Austin High School's 2008 Homecoming. Chris Ferris is the young man she is going with. He is really a nice guy. Notice the very LARGE corsage on her dress! This is the thing here in Decatur (Idon't know about anywhere else!) I had a doosey of a time trying to get that thing on her dress!!! As I was pinning it on her she reminded me that the guy is supposed to pin the flower on the girl. I said, "Well, Chris cannot put his hand where I am putting mine." He said that his dad said he should'nt do it. We kind of got a kick out of that! As the report goes, they had a very good time!

My Temple


I ran across this Mormonad while I was helping Sara put together a YW project. This is the temple Phil and I were sealed in! I will always love this temple. Not to mention, this is the temple that Grandma and Grandpa McCain served while living in St. George. Ahhh, good memories!

I Know Someone, Who Knows Someone . . . .

One of my best friends, Julianne Lowman, knew Govenor Palin when. . . . I think that is exciting. As you can tell, I have really become interested in this year's presidential campaign. You can guess who I am voting for!

Take a look at this site. It shows Julianne with Sarah Palin. What a small world! http://www.al.com/huntsvilletimes/pageone/wednesday.pdf

Eric Is A Cowboy!!

Eric sent this picture from the rodeo in Salina, Utah. He is on the "help" crew and loves every minute of it! We wish we could see him in action. Can you pick him out!

The Poor Pet Dog


Poor Patchy! He is the cutest, most fun, and sweetest little boy! We had to take him to the vet first thing this morning because he was having a seizure! We had to leave him for a while, and they will call us when he is ready to come home! Darn, I wish these animals had insurance! "OH Where OH Where has my little dog gone!"

It Could Be Worse!

Last nite, our worst fears came to fruition! Jessica and Sara got in a car wreck coming home from Huntsville. The comment made by all was, "It could be worse!" No one was hurt, except our auto deductible!

LIKE MOTHER, LIKE DAUGHTER



What have we gotten ourselves into?!!


Yes, we started another home improvement project. I always get the bright idea to do something. I become the deconstruction crew and the decorator/organizer, along with being the annoying LET'S GET IT DONE NOW!! crew.

I started taking up the tile in the front bathromm. Couldn't stand looking at the old anymore. If I had been smart, I would have taken a before picture so that we could compare the after. But, I am not that smart!!
So, here are a couple of pitures of the actual work in progress. Bless Phil's heart!! He did a great job!!
