My Grandma's Sewing Machine (newly refinished)



I thought you might like to see pictures of my Grandma Chandler's treddle sewing machine. My talented husband refinished it and it looks beautiful. What a treasure to have - thanks Lee!! You did an awesome job and I love it!

Home Again Home Again

It is nice to be home - we love the beautiful green grass and warm weather. Another tax season is over and we survived! We miss our friends in Alaska and hope they have a warm summer.

We are looking forward to camping and fishing but have to wait for the snow to melt in the mountains. We are heading to Idaho in mid June to Heise Hot Springs - it's one of our favorite places.

It's great to be around family again - I got to go to San Diego in March for the birth of Hadley's new baby, Michael. Shelly came too and we enjoyed some girl time. Michael had a rough start but is doing great.

Steve and Andrea are expecting a baby in November so we keep adding to those grandkids! That will make 14!

Lee's back to furniture restoring. He is refinishing my grandma's singer sewing machine cabinet and it looks wonderful. The only room left to refinish is the bathroom downstairs but I can't get him enthused to do that yet. After that he might build something that he really wants to.

By the way, Hadley, thanks for the bug to finally update my blog!
