Old coffee mill. We want to clean it, sandblast away the rust/ lead paint, paint it new and try using it.

My younger son got Lego Mindstorms. He made a ball sorter, with a computer that sorts them by color.

Making some chocolate Lego people with a mold I found on the Lego website. They ended up looking suprisingly very much like the real Lego people.

Santa came on the fire truck again. This year, there were no screaming babies! I think the kids really enjoy the visit.

It's that time of year for gift wrapping. Every year I seem short on something. This year, I think I might finally have enough boxes and bags.

My new refrigerator. It's a bit bigger than my old one. They even had to take the front door off the hinges to bring it in.

Birthday boy! I made him large "cake donuts". But the yellow cake crumbled and fell apart. It was still rather tasty though.

One of the bradford pear trees in the front yard. They stay this exact shape, without trimming. They are also some of the last trees to turn bright colors. I got these trees 10 years ago for my husband's 30th birthday. For several years I thought they weren't growing before it finally occurred to me they were indeed taller, they just didn't seem like it because their shape stayed the same.

We have come to the conclusion that the kids got far too many matchbox/ hot wheel toys. This is a very very small sampling of that collection.

I'm trying to start a terrarium. I saw some pictures on the internet, and they looked cute with moss growing in them. I figured, I have lots of moss growing in the woods, might as well try. Turns out, there are more varieties of moss back there than I thought. I think next I need to paint a small rock to look like a ladybug.
