Memorial Day

Kelli, your dad and I had a busy, productive day. Kelli mowed our lawn and Neil mowed Pedro's across the street. We also targeted Kelli's bedroom and tackled different projects. Neil built a corner shelf for Kelli to use as a makeup center. Kelli took her mirror from the other bedroom, painted the edges brown to match her walls and I helped by painting the shelf brown to match. Neil secured the mirror with some hardware. He also hung the curtain rod across her closet for the curtains that I pieced together with a matching panel to her window curtains, and some chocolate brown curtains Emily had given us. I made a HUGE mistake when cutting a piece out and added some extra labor to the project, but they are done and hung and don't look all that bad, considering. Neil also hung Kelli's metal candle sconce holder and we went to Lowe's to get the eye hooks for her picture frames. We also did a little yard work, and celebrated with pizza for supper.
Trigger and Lalah (spelling?) survived their visit with us while Justin and Emily were at the Oregon Coast. We enjoyed some "howling" quartets when Quito and O'Malley joined them from time to time.
We hope everyone else had a great day and took time to remember those from our personal and national heritage who have left with a precious heritage to honor and build upon.
LOVE YOU!!!!
