kitchen pic for you tanya lol

the counter with containers

I like the towel hanging on

the stove so handy and

it matches the kitchen.


I have 2 mats in the kitchen

this one did not take well

but love the valance with

the apple on it. Lea did it for

me and i still have it done.

the cabinets with the apples

in the wine glasses and lights

in them.

fireworks

These are some of the fireworks that
went off in Mascoutah on July 5th since
they postponed them on the 4th due
to the rain. it is nice we can watch them
from out house and avoid the crowds and all
that go to see them.

garden pic updated

our garden for the most part is doing good. we are starting to have some tomatoes wanting to turn colors so that is nice.

siding work

The guys truck to do the siding

the lift they used to replace the siding


The siding is finished and looks good. It is cheaper
than what the insurance wanted to do the siding
for seems like some people when things happen
up the price or find places more expensive to do the
work. Ben fixed the screen that they wanted 300.00
for and he did it for free. just glad that part is done
