Horray! Horray! Horray! We have finally got a new floor in our kitchen and bathroom. Scot had about three days off before he started a new job so we had him come and work. He is fast and good. We have a new floor in the kitchen which is a lot like to old one. I tried to get something different but I really liked the color and texture of the old one so I went just a little darker and bigger squares. I think the darker is going to show the dirt clods Jim brings in with him but I think I will like it. We got the carpets back down and put a taller baseboard down. We also painted some walls. Then when you paint the walls you have to paint the doors and then the door frames and then the ceilings. So I think my painting project has just begun.

I spent some time outside cleaning out my flower beds today and found some bulb leaves poking through the dirt. It has been warm enough during the day that it is making us want to get into the fields and do something. Jim has been busy moving hay to the cube mill. They ask for up to 6 -7 loads a day. Hay is suppose to be a really good price next year. That means milk will probably go up for you guys. Flour is going sky high. Grandma McGary bought some the other day for $20.00 for 50 pounds. It was 15 just about 10 days ago. So you know grandma.....she buys about a ton of it. Stores it in her basement....never to be seen again.

Did you hear that Janae's pigs had babies. That is all the big news around here. Janae is so proud. The two mother pigs had 25 babies. The kids are all excited and invite everyone to stop in and see the little pigs.

Taylor I loved your pictures of the school president day celebration. Where did you get your costume? Did your mom make your skirt? It looks like you are a great singer. Payton and grandpa are practicing a song for grandparents day the first week in March. He has to sing a song to grandpa and grandpa has to read him a book. Send more pictures of your school things because we like to see them.
I loved the pictures of Kenna going to McDonalds. Her hair is really growing and she is so cute. Did Sha curl her hair or it it that natural curl? It looks like she like McDonalds as much as the other grandkids.

Okay, I have something to tell everyone. I am going to join the team at school and walk a four mile walk in April for MS. I am suppose to get sponsors. If anyone would like to sponsor me for $1.00 that would be great. I figure it would be like buying a lottery ticket. If you buy a $1.00 ticket and then grandma walks the four miles and kills over dead, the inheritance comes a little early. So is it worth a $1.00 to see if grandma can make 4 miles? No really I don't want you to donate, it is just a joke.

Well Jim just walked through the door looking hungry so I had better go. Love your blogs and pictures.
