#142!

My wonderful husband has done it again! Another hand crafted piece of furniture, just like I wanted! Below is a picture of the TV/Entertainment stand that Bill has been working on to match the shelves he made last year.....now I just wait for end tables. Hope I'm not waiting another year! But now I understand why this stuff is so expensive a the country store....geesh! I am very thankful to have a husband that is so talented and is willing to make all of this for me.

I took some pictures at a VERY small wedding last weekend and am hoping to edit those over the next few days. I always said I would never do weddings, which I still will not do on my own, but this was an exception. My good friend Kelly asked for a big favor and I'd do just about anything for her! I will post some pics after I get some edited....

Grace has done well on her mid term report from school.....all A's EXCEPT in reading...a B! This kills me since I am a reading fanatic! When I go over the tests that she misses some on, she misses the silliest questions that she should not miss. She says it's because she hates the story because they are boring (which is somewhat understandable, they are pretty stupid sometimes). Bill had a pretty big talk with her about reading and how you will not always like it but you still have to do it. We talked to her about not just reading the story, but putting yourself there and visualizing it. After that talk, she has been reading like a fool! She woke up early this morning and instead of wanting to turn on the tv (which we don't do in the mornings anyway) she laid in bed and read a few chapters in a book! I am so happy, I may not have lost her yet!!

Like I said, here are a couple of pics of the tv stand and one of the bookcase from last year. And no, I was not watching a Nasa program on tv....not that there's anything wrong with that!
