We're still kickin'!

Mike has been after me to get some blogging done. I think that he should do it but he says that he has nothing to say. Our life must be boring. I haven't blogged in a while so here is what we have been up to: Spent 4 days in Minneapolis July 12-15. Saw our favorite blue grass performer, Alison Krauss and Union Station, Mike got to spend all day Friday with Josh at his job, Jessica and I did a little shopping and then we went to Murphy's Landing, which is a lot like Living History Farms. It was there that we saw Ione's 2 oldest girls as they work there part time. It was a lot of fun. We also got in some antique shopping during Raspberry Days in Hopkins, MN. The Overmohle Campout in Lake View completed our month and then it was back to work for me. So, while Mike continued to work at all his extra jobs, I was getting everything organized so that by the time this last Monday rolled around, all the kids had a classroom to go to. In three weeks, I have already put in 160 hours so this last week is all for Uncle Sam. I had the pleasure of taking Chrissy baby crib shopping last Saturday. It won't be long! They have moved her due date up to Oct. 26th. Not many football trips for Jason this fall. This Saturday we will be helping at a fundraiser for Mike's uncle who has just returned from Arizona where he was receiving treatments. He will now be having surgery at Mayo on Sept. 13th. I will try to post a picture of Justin's newest aquisition. Talk about a cat that makes herself at home!!

Is Everyone Busy??
Well everyone must be pretty busy doing something; I can't believe no one has written a blog for a while! I assume everyone is ok......I was just thinking that I should call mom, I think it has been over 3 weeks since I talked to her (that's pretty bad)! Well anyway, we are doing just fine; just really busy.
Thought I should let you all know that the decision has been made to close the furniture store in Remsen. Last week we sent out letters to our customers explaining our decision. Our plan was to start the store closing sale this coming Thursday, but........we have to hold off. It is possible that we have a buyer for the store! Tony would really love to have this happen. Number 1 it means that the store will remain in Remsen (it has been around for 116 years!) and number 2 it means Tony would not have to spend the next 3 months at the store for long hours. He would of course but it would be alot easier to sell it lock, stock and barrel. Our broker says it is a 95% chance of being a done deal; but we have plenty experience of someone saying this and then it falls through! So I personally don't have my hopes up.......whatever happens, will happen!
Tony is anxious for his first weekend of Delto classes in September, he is worried already about getting his studying time in and he was quickly reminded already that he must remember to read through all the directions first before starting anything! (A good lesson for everyone to remember)
Well, hope to hear from some of you soon. Take care!
