Happenings

Exciting things are happening: 1) New cedar siding was put in to replace some of the older, splintered boards. We will then get them painted, new roof, and then solar panels. 2) I am currently jostling for 1st place in our walking challenge. I am averaging 18,000 steps per day and am quite tired. Only 20 more days to go. haha. 3) Christian's 6th grade fundraiser was a success and they had a ton of fun! He sold 13 out of his 18 origami roses for $4 each and said he had the best time. I get to keep the rest and make a bouquet, which I am excited about. 4) Our first porcupine spotting in North Richland last night in our neighbor's tree. He/she was very adept at climbing, and was eagerly nibbling on the greens. I guess porcupines don't shoot their quills contrary to popular belief, it's just that if you touch the porcupine you could get quilled. 5) Thumb progress - Dae clipped off the hanging piece so now it's just growing back slowly.
