Countdown to Christmas
This is a second Christmas advent tree i have made. This one features 24 Christmas ornaments that are each different. As we get closer to the day we celebrate the birth of our Savior the tree becomes more decorated. Each time you put the days ornament on the tree you receive a Hershey's kiss.

House Face lift - Butterflies
When trying to figure out what to do to make the front of our house not so plain we thought "what better way to add beauty to the front of our house the make some butterflies?"
We found some plans for butterflies, built them out of 1/4 inch plywood and 1x2 pine, painted them and then mounted them on the front of the house.
Each time we see them it reminds us how creative God is.

Happy 20th Anniversary Cake
August 23, 2005 we celebrated our 20th wedding
anniversary. As a garage woodworker the challenge was to come up with a creative
way to celebrate. After sitting in my
shop thinking, looking around and thinking some more. It came to me why not
build a cake?
Some dry wall cut to size and nailed together, then
frosted with drywall mud and paint. No
cake is finished without candles. So to finish off the cake I cut 20 holes the
size of quarters in the shape of a “20”. To complete the Anniversary cake I placed
in 20 rolls of Bi-Centennial Quarters with a flame glued to the top of each
roll. Then place in each hole.in each
hole.
