Running Full Steam Ahead

Running full steam ahead

That’s Mallory, she loves to RUN everywhere now! Run, climb, over and under and through and you get the picture. She’s very active to say the least!

Ben was in Racine, WI all this week and Bean, Tucker and I held down the fort. My wounds are healing from breaking into the fort.

Friday Bean and I braved the snow from Thursday night (which wasn’t much but the side roads were still snow covered Friday am) and drove up the parkway to Owensboro. She stayed with Mrs Carole and had a ball seeing all her old friends and a few new ones.

I on the other hand did not have a ball packing up my office. It wasn’t that bad, but packing in general sucks, especially when you’ve got to pack all the boxes and trash down from the 2nd floor, up and down and up and down. At least it was a workout!

I got all I could fit in my vehicle and then went to meet our Realtor so we could discuss getting the house on the market. So we got that sorted through and by then it was almost 4:30 and time to go get Mallory!

Ben was flying home Friday afternoon late, his parents were headed to Elkton to stay with us for the weekend and Bean and I were heading back home. Somehow the two of us beat everyone else home!

We had a fairly low key weekend. We all trekked back up to Owensboro on Saturday morning because I couldn’t fit all the office chairs in my vehicle and we needed the truck. Here's Ben taking down the sign at my Owensboro office:



We went to the local shoe store for Ben to look at work boots and Bean had fun in there little Richard Scary kid ride : )






Then back to Elkton and a stop at the Soda Shop for Susan and Bud to try it out. We decided to take them to the Black Horse Pub Saturday night, our favorite place, the wait was a little long but the food was yummy as always and of course the Vanilla Pale Ale was AMAZING. I wish I had a tap of that in my house : )

Sunday was church and just laying around the rest of the afternoon. Ben’s parents left Monday morning and we settled back into our normal routine.

Here’s a few other pictures of Bean with the new Case IH stocking hat Ben got her and with her key rings, I called her the Janitor as much as she likes packing around those key rings!!
