It was pajama day at school for Hayden!

Waiting for Hayden to get out of school - after their matching sneekers shopping trip

coming down the stairs from the guest room over the garage. Sadie has to have her bubble wrap with her at all times - pop!pop!pop!

Adding to the excitement of Heidi's birth the 28th of Feb, was the earthquake in Chile. This is my sea wall after the tide came in and went out 4 times in one hour - that's 7 minutes for it to come in and 7 minutes for it to retreat, sucking out all the sand. The small wall laying in the sand was pulled over and the sea wall that is standing is now exposed down to the timbers that framed it's foundation. We lost about 3 feet of sand!

We are adding improvements to the old house, hopefully it will attract a buyer.

Julie and Eva had to come for Heidi's Birth, Feb 28th!. Sadie and Eva mostly ignored the birth and had a good time together.

Trying to cut down an 80 ft. dead tree, 24 inch diameter, was not easy. It will make lots of fire wood for June Lake.

Well, the old tree finally went over in the dark. After 10 hours of chopping, Wes and Tom were so surprised when it went they were speechless and forgot to yell 'Timber!!'

A great visit with Wes and Ginnie at June Lake.

Pictures from the last few days. The terra cotta floor in the kitchen in a herring bone pattern. A view of the bath tub tile in the guest bath. They pored the outside concrete in the area between the garage and living room, also built the low wall separating it from the front door area. The long curved step on the beach works well as a step or a sitting bench. The steps will remain colored concrete, the deck will be stone tiles as will the other area.

A few pics from June Lake with the cousins - Hayden,Sadie and Eva. They loved their water backpacks. Eva would wade in any water - no matter how cold!

Saturday morning and the painters are there - along with the plaster men doing the garage. The outdoor stairway is finished to the room over the garage and a shot of the bathroom
