Christmas Celebrations

We celebrated Christmas in all the usual ways. We gathered with family, ate delicious desserts, and shared gifts. We spent our first Christmas together just being together. This month's video is of us ice skating by the ocean at Hotel Del where we honeymooned so many, many days ago.

It's Autumn

Hello All! Autumn is here and we continue to both be employed,  Holly @ Trinity Christian School, (year #2)  & Pete is @ the City of Prescott. We have completed some home remodel projects through the summer. Here are a few pictures;  Our Guest Bedroom! We did the flooring ourselves :) Our Guest bathroom is getting new tile. Pete continues to work on it. Our new fence.  This completed fencing in the yard so the dogs can run free in it.  The digging was tough work,  rocks, hard clay & 63 bags of concrete,  but we finally completed it.  AZ had a record year of rain.

Being on the job only 5 minutes,  he was ...

We are now in our new home and continue to work each day renovating it. Here are a few pix;  A new Knotty Alder door to the Master Bedroom.  A busy Living room area with fireplace.  The front entry. Soon to be renovated with new steps.  The view off our back deck.  New Travertine flooring in Hall bathroom.  Living room. Kitchen area. Holly is off work for the summer and doing a lot of "wall" painting & yard work. Pete DID get full-time employment with the City of Prescott,  so after working 7-4 he is busy each evening doing  renovation work, fencing, window repair, tile work, etc. We are still trying to settle in and figure out all that "neighborhood" ...
