Fall Season - one of my favorite seasons!




I can't believe its October already! The month of Sept. has just flown right by. Last week I went on a three day road trip to Newark, Ohio to visit the Longerberger Homestead. What an experience! Traveling with 6 other ladies (most were Southern - mind you) we headed up to Newark, OH. It was a fun trip! I had the opportunity to make my own basket while there. That was a very neat and special experience. One of the many highlights was getting my basket signed by a Longerberger family member. Her name was Wendy too! It was good to get away for a few days from my hussle and bussle busy life.

Our little house on Marley Drive is coming along. Just thinking back, we bought the house on Aug. 1st, instantly had the grass cut, painted the mailbox and access the damage. A week later, we went on vacation to Japan - returned 2 weeks later and vigourously started to work on this house. We have owned this house a little over a month and have literally turned it upside down fixing it. The roof was fixed within a four day time frame, dry wall was put up in a weeks time, subfloors measured, cut and laid, and all new electric completed by Cy.It's down to finishing the bathroom, painting, install new carpet and refinishing the hardwood floors. You ask when we will move in? That's a question I'm asking myself too!

Oh Wendy! You were so close to us. Casey used to work in Newark. Let me know if you ever make it back to OH.
