It is almost that time of year….lake time! I have done a few post in the past few years…about the lakehouse. It is a perfect place to be in the summertime.

His room is in a bit of a disaster state. The walls need some repair. The trim needs help…but he wanted a vision of what I would put together for his room. Here is what we came up with … [Read more...]
While on vacation last week I took about 400 pictures. Thank the Lord for digital “film” right?!? I remember many family vacations when I was young…my dad would have about 10 rolls of film to be developed by the time we got home. We would take them into be processed and have to wait days to get them back. And I remember when one hour … [Read more...]
