chair remodel

so Deena inherited a bunch (12) chairs from the endoscopy center waiting room if we wanted them. we always need chairs when company comes over so thought what the heck. when I saw them i wasn't too impressed. they were hard, the foam from the 70's was flat and the fabric was not real thrilling. i thought maybe we should take them anyway and try and sell them for a little extra change. then i had a second thought, lets see what it might cost to put our own fabric on them, and see if we can find them acceptable. we really could use some extra chairs for the deck and for when we have guests. deena found this fabric that she loved and we bought some extra cushiony stuff, i think the look awesome and now i am glad we have them!! Deena and i have done all the work in the mold of Rachel and Angie, we wanted to show that we too can do some things artsy when need gives inspiration.

What i have been so busy with!



alright, it is time to explain what i have been so busy with the last couple of months. I have started my own business, and just hoping i can get it off the ground. there is so much involved with starting up a business that i really have at times been overwhelmed. Here it is. I would like to thank dad especially for all of his support and his letting me use him for a sounding board. there has been some rough moments but all in all i am ready for business. so wish me luck. my website will be up and running very soon so check it out in a week or so www.gbasphalt.com

Hard to believe but Abby is 1 !!





I can hardly believe that this little girl has been with us for an entire year now!! time flies! little Abster is quite a change of pace as far as girls in my family are concerned. she is just pleasant almost all of the time, she has a really cute personality that we are starting to see more and more of. she loves to show off and loves to speed crawl every where. she isn't real cuddly, more wiggley like sammy was but doesn't have the 'zilla' quality ...yet...we are keeping our fingers crossed.

everybody wish her a happy birthday!
