Garage & Sunny Dreams.

Of all the projects going on around these parts, the completion of the garage has made us wait the longest. Let's just put it this way, I will REALLY appreciate not having to scrape my car off next winter. Also, I hope to avoid going out into the pouring rain this summer when the garage will hopefully at least have a roof. So far, this is how we look...



This coming weekend, the roof will hopefully be sheeted and then all it will need are some shingles, windows and doors. It will be nice to have some extra space other than the basement to store some of our "outdoor things".

Prairie Chickens are popping up everywhere around here. Jake almost caught our dinner the other day, but they saw us coming & got out of there quickly.


I am starting to find myself longing for spring. I usually do around this time of year, where winter feels like it has been here forever, but this year, my longing is even more apparent. I think Jake is right there with me as the spring will bring more walks and more outdoor time in general. At least there are many exciting things that will happen as we wait for the snow to melt and the sun to heat up. There will be the arrival of a much anticipated baby to our group of friends, a visit from my brother, his wife, and beautiful girls from St Thomas, Ontario, as well as basketball playoffs and provincials for the team I am helping coach. Add in the ever changing and growing of our own little person and time will fly even faster, I'm sure.

Before we know it, we will be drinking Butter Beer, riding Space Mountain, and napping on "It's a Small World" in July :).
