A little of this and a little....

of that !! Yes, this will be a hodgepodge of things occupying our time for 3 weeks.

We have been so busy with home improvement things and now Bruce has taken home improvements to the next level..... outside to the shop! It is getting a facelift, major construction repairs, and a good old fashioned cleaning. The shop will now be dual purpose - a shop for the roofing business and an aircraft restoration shop. There will even be a little addition on the north side for a paint booth and B also decided to add a little bathroom (save time hoofing it back and forth to the house when nature calls!) :)

So here are some of things we've been doing.....

 Bear had his 2nd birthday
 Buggy turned 4
 She loved her quilt Nana made....

 One of the ladybugs on the quilt
 then Buggy came home for a visit - she got to spend quality time with Donkey and the horses,
 gave Emmy a little TLC
 we baked cookies and did dishes.
Then the first weekend of March, Eric brought the kids home for a visit while Jason & Dolly & Braylee came home too. Jason did a wonderful job on our tilework and Braylee was so much fun to play with. What a good baby! We were out in the pasture flying the little model plane. Sure was fun!
 The guys had fun flying Bruce's new toy - a Aeronca Champ model plane. The kids (all of them) LOVED IT! Really hard to see in in the sky, might have to enlarge your photo. Jason had to go fetch the plane after it crashed next to our bull - Butch. He wasn't too fond of Jason!
 They had so much fun - one of the times we had them corraled.
 Eric & Bear did a lot of speedmoving with the John Deere.
 Braylee & Dolly enjoyed visiting Cheyenne,
 and so did Buggy.

Enjoying a little Papa time on the tractor.

 Oh yes, and Johnny Ringo came to visit us as well. Emmy really loves him and so do the kids.
and the garden got plowed, tilled, and ready for a garden in a couple of weeks.

On top of all this, we've had rooms painted, the tile done, and Bruce is working on the shop as I've said above. I'll post pictures of that next time! Whew, no wonder we are tired!  Tuesday we are flying to Minnesota to visit the other K-Kids. The oldest two are having their birthday so the weather is cooperating for us to make the trip. We're ready for a little get-away ......and to do some fun things with all of them!
