Life in the fast lane

We enjoyed watching the humming birds eat and play only inches from us on our deck all summer.

They are very territorial and occasionally fight over the feeders

As they sky darkened, the thunder and rain started. At that point we went inside for cover.

We've been working on our house now since we moved in about 5 1/2 years ago but the last year has been the most exciting transformation of our home yet. Our good friend Nate began working on our basement last June to tear down old walls and rebuild our basement with a better floor plan. This weekend we got our basement floor acid stained to go with our pine tung and groove ceilings, WOW... what a transformation. As soon as I am able to go down in my basement I will take some new pictures. The thick coating they put on the floor to seal it takes about 48 hours to dry and they just completed that this morning. Anyway, here is a few of our latest family pics and maybe a few of our basement in recent months.

How cool is this...

So I finally check in to "my space" since that seems to be the way to stay connected with friends who you typically no longer talk on the phone to for one reason or another and then my sister let's me in on "blog spot". Now I can stay in touch with friends and family without all the garbage and adds that my space is so common for. "I sound like I'm advertising in a commercial." Anyway, I will do my best to keep this updated.
Tell Later...
