Extreme Makeover





Zac and Alyssa came over the other night, and boy! did we have fun with those kids! Aren't these pics of the Brady Boy cute!

They wound up spending the night with us because we were going to leave the next morning for a picnic at Fort Mtn. State Park. We woke up to heavy rain, so decided against going even though the rain was going to clear out soon; it would be too muddy.

As we were sitting around having our morning coffee I commented on how crowded the room was, I wish it was wider and not so long, etc. Alyssa said, "Well, we can fix that!"; and so began the Extreme makeover!


We moved about 5 pieces of furniture out of the room to give back to the owners that loaned them to us and rearranged everything! It is amazing how transformed the room is and how much more space there is. I am a very much happier camper with my new livingroom.

Also, Alyssa loaned a very special painting that Zac got her their first year of marriage to hang over the couch. What a generous daughter-in-love!

don't be disappointed at being beat to the punch! your punch means just as much if not more than everyone else's!

i did indeed cook all the food for drea's party... actually, erica helped make the fondue and green beans. fondue is yummy -- and has lots of options for recipes, including chocolate for dipping fruit! i can't have that of course, but it sounds like fun :-)

we'll have to break it out at christmas.

can't wait for that big hug myself!

love you, mother dear,

kate

Hi, Mrs. Corley,
I'm glad I found you! I had a look at your sister's page, Katy's and Alyssa's. I'm glad you are getting some family time for a while. That is so good.
We're here in Mexico along with my parents. We are 2 hours apart and about $40 dollars in tolls. It is nice to have family close, though!
Love,
Bonnie Rath (Nebergall)
