Chimney Get Fixed....

This is Emerson's new favorite saying instead of "chimney ut oh" or "chimney fall down." Yes the chimney has been fixed. We have our very small and cute 3 foot chimney, just high enough to vent our new gas insert. We turned that thing on Saturday and it kicks out the heat. I am just happy to have it done. Next we need to set up a time to have our gutters fixed and I think we are all set....oh we need to fill the 2 foot deep whole in the yard from where the cap landed. Nothing a little dirt won't fix.

I spent Saturday cleaning out our attic with bleach, then pulling back insulation and putting in rafter vents. While doing this I purged anything that could hold mold and put everything else in Tupperware containers. Yes it was a lot of fun. After one day the attic is dry, doesn't smell and makes me feel a whole lot better. Joel watched the girls all day and said he didn't know which was more difficult (usually I am the one watching the girls and he is doing the project).

For those who know Liz and Zac Owens they had a little boy (Sawyer Westbrook) on 3/28. Everyone is doing good. I am trying to get Liz to start a blog, so hopefully this will help.

Good luck to Michelle and Kara this week. Can't wait to see pictures of your new little ones!

Happy Spring
(I can't wait to go home from work and play outside with Emerson.)

Ha! Good luck getting Liz to start a blog. I tried to get her to do it a while ago. Maybe you'll be the force she reckons with. ;)

Thanks for the good luck!!! We are heading home today.

Definitely work on Liz to get a blog going... I would love to hear how she is doing!!

Thanks for the good luck wishes --- we are all at home now and doing fine. My recovery seems to be a little more painful this time, but maybe I just don't remember the pain from last time.
