work on the bedroom

This is the only picture we have of the bedroom before we started working on it this weekend. The furniture and shelf are from the people who lived here before, but the picture does show the color of the walls. Posted by Picasa

 

how it looks now

new paint, new very cool dentil crown moulding (not that the moulding is all up -- it's hard to install!) We'll put more pictures up when the room is done and all put together. Posted by Picasa

 

springtime . . .

. . . is sometimes here. Sometimes it's warm, sometimes it's not. But it's usually sunny, and the flowers are out in force. Check out the ones behind us. Posted by Picasa

 

meat!

Ben's taking full advantage of the new barbeque. Two pounds of steak right here. Posted by Picasa

 

Rachel's never been so proud

Look! Flowers that Rachel planted are blooming! These are probably the ones that Sue planted, though, since they look pretty healthy. Posted by Picasa

 

Ben's trip to Yankee Land

Ben went to a Yankees game with his coworkers last week. Unfortunately, the Yankees won. Posted by Picasa

 

our brave girl

Roxie's starting to spend a little time outside. She stays pretty close to home, but she goes a little further each day. Posted by Picasa

Kennedy's are here

Ben's parents, Bob and Sue, came to visit us this week. They brought beautiful weather with them from San Diego, at least for the weekend. We went for a gorgeous walk in Washington Park in downtown Albany on Saturday and on the Empire State Plaza on Sunday. Here they are on a bridge over the lake in Washington Park. Posted by Picasa

 
Look how beautiful that weather is . . . can't wait until spring is really here. Posted by Picasa

 

baby Rhett

There were some pictures of our nephew Rhett left on Bob's memory stick. Isn't he the cutest thing? Posted by Picasa

 

Bob's wide angle lens

Bob has a wide angle lens that he's very proud of. Pretty cool photos he can take. Posted by Picasa

The Kennedys and the Egg

By far the strangest building in the area. The Egg is an auditorium, part of the Empire State Plaza. Most of the government buildings in town were built in the 1960s as part of the state's largest public works since the New Deal. BTW, isn't Ben a charmer? Posted by Picasa
