Well, here we are again nearing the end of the week! Christmas is coming quickly!
Sunday we headed for Fallon to do a favor for our neighbor Joe. He was buying a mining dredge from a guy out there but Joe had to work. We never mind a drive so off we went. Nice guy in a neighborhood and he and Ken hit it off! Turns out they head for Quarzsite after Christmas so we'll probably meet up with them sometime. We got home in time for lunch here at home.
Monday was a run around day in Carson City. I had ordered a few things so they needed picking up. Got some Christmas shopping done but not all. The 16th we're taking the Tundra in for its servicing so hoping to finish that up then.
Tuesday was a stay at home day :) Got a lot of the wrapping and sorting done during the day. We headed next door and brought the motorhome home! Now we can work on it when we have time. It ran like a champ, we tested the heating and a/c works fine! We also noticed we've got 6 brand new tires on there! Not bad for $1500.00!
Getting ideas from Pinterest on what I'd like to do to the inside :) Gotta love Pinterest!
Ken barbecued some chicken out back near the bunkhouse. We had a fire going so texted Karen to see if she'd like to come over and she did. We sent dinner home with her. Looks like John will be back probably Thursday for the holidays. It was a cold night but we were nice and toasty by the fire!
This morning it was near 0630 before I brought Ken his coffee..much better night's sleep than the night before.
Black Friday weekend we bought a 43 inch TV for the guest room, so today Ken got it up and hung. Wow..big screen to us! It went from 19 to 43. I mostly finished wrapping what I have as of now. Waiting on a few deliveries and then what ever I need to pickup..
I was able to get Jacob's Christmas package in the mail last week, so hoping it arrives in Italy before Christmas. Sure will be different without him home this year. Last year after Christmas we had all five grandsons and girlfriends here :) :(
Tomorrow should be another stay at home day, except for a run into town for more wrapping paper and a couple of gift boxes.
Have a great night!
Beutiful sunset. Makes the MH shine. I remember moving up from a 19 inch TV and it was great. You'll love the difference. Great looking family.
ReplyDeleteThank you Doug!! Yep, love our family!
ReplyDeleteYou certainly got a good deal on that motorhome. Can't wait to see you on the road with it. Beautiful sunset!!!
ReplyDeleteYeah we are excited! Not something we "needed" but was too good to pass up..
DeleteYour place is looking awesome with the tree and lights all around the outside buildings. Love the one with the fire glowing.
ReplyDeleteGreat picture of Adam and Raider. Aaaah, so sweet!
Looks like you are getting ready for the big day, it is coming so fast and those of us here in the cold winter are grateful for that! :)
You'll love the new tv! :) there will be many "Wow!" comments.
Thank you Patsy. Seems the Christmas season is just too short though! Raider sure loves Adam and vice versa! It was too big for our living room, but at least it fits the guest room!
DeleteEvery thing looks so pretty and Christmasey. Six new tires? What an awesome deal. Love all the pavers at Karen's place.
ReplyDeleteThank you Elva. Yeah we looked at them after getting it home and was shocked..I think the furtherest they went was from Reno to hear. Karen has a beautiful yard for sure!
DeleteGlad you are making everything look Christmasy.
ReplyDeleteSix New Tires would cost $1,500. around here. You got a deal.
Be Safe and Enjoy the season with your family.
It's about time.
Actually they probably would cost that here too . We are thrilled with it for sure. Thank you Rick, hope you'll be able to enjoy Christmas too.
DeleteLove the look of your place, really looking like Christmas!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much Bill! My favorite time of year for sure!
