Upstairs' Update Plus...

Check out the new light and recessed cabinet work in the upstairs bathroom!

I spent last weekend visiting my friend Nikki and her family in Birmingham, Alabama. I also squeezed in a quick lunch date with my friend, Tatum, whom I"ve known since kindergarten at Concordia.

Friday night, Keith and I went to see Willie and the Wheel (Willie Nelson and Asleep at the Wheel) at the new Durham Performing Arts Center. Saturday, we stopped by a fundraiser for "Team Hardy" for St. Baldricks' at Jerry's Artarama, managed by team leader Tom. (Check out http://www.teamhardy.org for more info. The boys get shaved Saturday!) Keith also did some handywork upstairs as you can see above.

Slack in Posting...

SuperBowl party hosts Rick and Alicia

Yes, we have been slack in our postings as of late, but we will try and get back on schedule. Work for both of us has been busy as usual, and I have been nursing a frustrating knee injury. We've still managed to squeeze in many good times with friends both near and far.

Super Bowl Sunday was spent first at a party with friends at Rick and Alicia's house. We stayed through the 1st half and arrived at our neighbors' party just in time to see BRUCE!! You can only imagine how excited Keith was about that... (We did get tickets for the Greensboro show, and yes, the plan is to push to the front of the stage...)

Last weekend, we had a NCSU reunion of sorts. Our friends Tracy and Brian Dixon came in from Michigan, and the crowds followed, all the way from Edenton, Wisconsin, and Spartanburg. The highlight of the weekend was our ten-person feast at Tasca Brava. (Our table finished five bottles of wine and managed to run others out of our room, only because we were having such a fabulous time!)
