Mom Moves to Minnetonka

Donna and Craig drove Mom from Peoria after the Peoria relatives got her all packed up. They arrived safe and sound in Minnesota on Saturday and we quickly got the truck unloaded, the dishes put away, bed made and our feet up for a break. Donna and Craig are spending the night in the available suite at the complex and Connie, Doug and Molly have prepared dinner for the first night. Lots more to do in the apartment but everything went great and Mom and kitties have a comfy bed to spend the first night together getting settled.

Old, dusty table...

An old, dusty table that was in our house when we were little, now looking

for a new home at the Dawnbreakers Kiwanis garage sale.

A little staging and maybe someone will want this in their home.
A couple of old Kiwanians find the table makes a great footstool.

Carpet Out - new discovery, hardwood floors!
