Winter's Here!

It finally snowed. There were a couple of inches on the deck this morning and it snowed all day. No tracks heading out this driveway today!

Temps were in the 20's today but are down in the teens tonight. Good thing the heater is working.

The bird feeders were very popular all day.

Now for the Good News/Bad News.

Good news, we finished putting in the Pergo floor this week, and got a new fridge. See the new floor? It took us two days but we got the hall, kitchen and dining room done on Thursday. Note the icicle lights on the deck. That's as far as my decorating has gotten.

Friday Lloyd and Terry picked up the fridge and bath cabinets before the weather hit.

The bad news is, we had to tear up the floor today because the water hook up on the fridge leaked and collected under the flooring and it started to buckle. Agony. We didn't have to tear up the hall.

Now everything is drying out, and we'll pick up some new boards tomorrow to reinstall with the undamaged ones we picked up. Nothing like having to do the job twice...it was SO much fun the first time!

LOVE your snow! We had flurries the other night, yes we did. Sorry about your mishap in the kitchen, it will all be good when the girls come home!

It's STILL snowing, and more is coming. Yikes! Almost done rebuilding the floor. The run to Home Depot today was wonderful (for a change, ha ha). The cliffs along the gorge were so beautiful with snow on them, I didn't mind going at all.

What a great refrigerator! Show us some pictures of the inside so I can see how much wine it will hold!

Ugh, sorry about the floor, but the place is looking great!
