Dear Benjamin & Kiera

The day is finally here.  The day the Great Pumpkin comes!  Are you guys going to go get lots of candy to share with your family?  Guess what?!?  I made a railing on the bed in the computer room so you can climb up the ladder and sleep in the bunkbed next time you come to Gramps' house and not worry about falling out.  Here's a picture of it.  Grandma made me a triple berry pie yesterday.  Mmmm  it is good.  I wish you were here to share it with me.  I took this week off from work and was able to get some things done.  Let's see...besides the railing on the bed, I made full extension slide drawers for Grandma for her kitchen cupboard.  I made a screen to put in front of the TV to save it from little curious bodies.  I bought a new car.  I bought a new fridge.  I had to take the Jeep in to get something fixed that has been waiting a while for me to do it.  I raked leaves, I'm about to install Windows 7 on Grandma's computer, and I thought about my kids and grandkids a lot.  I love you guys.  Tomorrow you can start looking forward to TURKEY DAY!!!!   YEA!!!!!!

It was nice that Kim could take MOST of the week off. It counted as time off, but he still had to be there for meetings etc (via the phone). He did make some great progress around here! Great job honey!

Sounds like an expensive week off. ;-)

I love productive weeks like that.

spoiled to get a new fridge just for that purpose. I wouldn't want one of those fridges as I think they hold less.

Rail looks good but it will still be a while before Kiera is sleeping there.

We got a new fridge because the old one's door shelves were held together with duct tape, the seal is starting to go bad, and it costs more to run than a new one, and mainly because we knew it would be needing to be replaced soon and decided to do it while we can afford it.

THIS GUY   has to be having a hard time right now in Utah trying to make a name for himself and selling his music given that THIS GUY has quite a musical history too and has more press coverage.   Some people are just born to have bad luck.

Lots of fun happening around here. Kiera going through daddy-withdrawls after steve had to start school again. Poor little lady. Kiera has started trying to draw pictures of people now (see photo above). Kiera has officially mastered the VCR. She knows how to work it and what all of the buttons do. (I'll bet there are some 70 year olds who don't know as much as she does at age 2). Lydia has been enjoying a few firsts lately. We gave her rice cereal last night for the first time which she was apparently more than ready for (see video), we've put her in a doorway jumper which she likes although she hasn't figured out the jumping part yet. Oh, and for those of you who have been to NM lately, you'll appriciate this: Steve and I plan on applying to a government program that is somewhat like the military in that they pay for your schooling; but instead of steve being in a branch of the military, he will owe the government years of his life serving in one of th...
