Lights on for safety

Donna told us her headlights were dim and yellow before we came and asked if I could replace them.  Some co-workers told me about a headlight restoration kit that worked well, so we got one and that was one of my projects today. If you're wondering, all it takes to go from this:

To this:

Is a permanently immobilized shoulder, 10 sheets of 220 and 360 grit sandpaper, one beer and a genuine love for one's mother in law. 

Make that two beers......and some wine.

Tejas

We went to Washington on the Brazos yesterday, the "Birthplace of Texas."  There is a museum there that chronicles the history of Texas and it's like a whole other country, probably because it was a whole other country.   We visited the home of the last President of the Republic of Texas which is a working farm with people in period dress.  It was interesting to consider the Republic of Texas voted to be annexed by the United States after gaining independence from Mexico, and all that was in the mid 1800's.  It's a different place, no doubt, but now it makes more sense.

Lookin' Good...

We're pretty sure Ella is going to be a Rock n' Roll singer, but in her shades she kind of looks like a bounty hunter.  Either way, she's cute. 

Number 1 Fan

Morgan, if you're listening, you still have a long time adoring fan. She plays your songs over and over again. If you haven't guessed, it's Ella. During every song she asks, "Is he singing that to me?"  Yes Ella, he is singing to you. "Right here, is he singing that part to me?"  Yes Ella, that part too. It's the real deal, she's hooked. 

P.S.

She hopes you don't have a girlfriend....

Green Girl

So, Autumn is apparently going Green, but I prefer to think she is just trying to save us money. She hung the clothes up outside and posted this sign on the dryer. 

Superheros.....

No need to fear ever again, everyone.....FlapperChic and Batgirl are watching out for you.  Ever vigilant, fearless, and above all...stylish.

So That's What I Look Like....

Autumn drew a picture of me, and I laugh every time I see it, so I thought, why not let everyone else laugh at me too?  For your enjoyment I present.....Me.
