Thank you!

It has been awhile since I last posted since I was trying to spend as much time as I could with Brandon before he started residency but now that he has started (today was officially his first day as last week was orientation), I have no excuse not to publish the posts that I started a week or so ago.

Isaac and Lagaytha came out a two weeks ago to help Brandon with some projects around the house while I was working. They stained the deck on the only day that it wasn't raining, put up shelves in both of our downstairs closets, put up blinds on the front door windows, helped sand our coffee table, fixed our dresser and secured the bike rack to the wall in the garage. They also were so nice to help with cleaning and everything else. They even were here on their anniversary which was so thoughtful. They were a huge help! They also helped Joy paint her and Nick's condo. You would think that with everything they did, they were here for at least a week, but they were only here 4 days! They got so much done...thank you Isaac and Lagaytha!

At Chesters for Isaac and Lagaytha's anniversaryWatching the thunderstroms outside (we don't get thunderstorms like this in Oregon) - little did we know that there were 4 tornados just 30 minutes away!

Thanks also mom and dad (Barb and Dwight) for the bike rack and the ice hockey table that Joy and Nick brought out for us from Oregon!
