Snow in Las Vegas

Thought I'd let you see our little bit of snow. Nothing like you guys in Washington or anywhere else got, but it did throw Las Vegas for a loop.

Other areas like at Christopher's got far more than we did.

It is just beautiful.

Susan' s Kitchen

My kitchen is just about done. The results are wonderful and we are enjoying the fresh look. Curtis has put in a lot of work. I did help, but he did most of the work.

The first picture is before, then in the middle, and then today. The middle picture shows the difference in the cabinets. You can kind of see how bad the lower cabinets by the sink were. We found a wonderful product that Curtis used to do the cabinets that didn't require stripping the cabinets after I had sanded a few and annoyed the neighbors. This was so much easier on the neighbors nerves. We were happy to oblige them. See how the grain of the wood pops out.

So, here we are as of today. The grout needs cleaned and sealed again and then we will be done and on to the next project.

UP-DATE ON SHRLEY

We forgot to post. Moma's PET scan is scheduled for Tuesday, Nov. 11th. I will be in Boise for this weekend, and won't be leaving until Tuesday afternoon, so I'll be able to go with her to it. We know you all are, but please keep Moma in your prayers. We are praying that this horrible chemo will have helped. Moma is getting very worn out emotionally and spiritually, along with the physical weariness. Your phone calls and visits help to raise her spirits, so please don't forget her. We are praying that perhaps a miracle might be the Lord's will.
We love you!
Cami

HAPPY BIRTHDAY FOR NOVEMBER!

AND JUST FOR FUN - HERE'S YOUR SIGN!

Scorpio Zodiac Sign October 23 - November 21

The Scorpio person has a tendency to be possessive and secretive. This person is an expert at getting others to reveal their secrets, although he or she rarely opens up to anyone. Scorpios devote 100% of their energy to everything they do and rarely give up. The Scorpio person is critical and demanding towards loved ones and expects complete loyalty and devotion from a partner. A lot of energy is focused on the pursuit of sex and power. The Scorpio individual needs a partner who is as passionate and willful as he or she is and finds it difficult to respect a person who is weak-willed or passive.

AND JUST FOR FUN - IF YOU WERE BORN DURING SEPTEMBER 23rd TO OCTOBER 22nd HERE'S YOUR SIGN

Libras need balance and harmony. The Libra person is extremely sensitive to his or her environment and does not function properly when surrounded by chaos and disorder. These people are charming and pleasant, possessing a strong disliking for confrontation.
