Cleaned the house for the kids to come over; and then KRL-N came over late afternoon Friday; Bravo was super-excited to see her again. She was in a lot of pain as she took a free cardio-kick-boxing class at the base today. Limping around like an old woman, she walked exactly like I felt.
Chad & Crew continued to work on site prep. Hubby had LOTS of people down at the shop. Seems they come out of the woodwork when there is a load of activity! Some of the guys that he has traded work with finally came out to help.
Hubby worked very late; until way after dark. He & KRL-N had pizza for dinner. K teased that our oven needs replacing - (it didn't bake the pizza all the way through) because it is 100 years old! My thoughts exactly. But this is something else that will have to fail before we replace it. Which will probably be soon as there are a lot of things FaiLinG around here. The garage door that we seldom use decided to crap itself for the 3rd time! We called "The Garage Door Guys" out again to fix it.
Our beloved s-i-l finally made it out after 10PM as he had an exciting time after duty. Dogs attacked him left & right - they were so happy to see him. Especially Bravo. Bravo wiggled & hubby said you could almost see him smiling, he was so happy to see his "daddy" again. Matt had been having a fun time at the Base as they sponsored a water war free-for-all; complete with food & beer. But it was only for military members and K could not go. Matt was very animated when he explained it all to us. Lots of water balloons & water guns & hastily constructed "forts". A lot of excitement to raise morale!
Gave M&K their surprise Stay-Cation package-had purchased them an overnight stay at The Davenport Hotel in Spokane. Complete with valet parking, dining gift certificate. They even serve Starbucks at the hotel so Matt can get his early morning fix! We were overwhelmed with gratitude when he decided to work for us all last weekend and didn't get a chance to unwind. So we are going to make them have fun for at least 1 weekend~
Saturday morning went down to get lattes & milk with the hubby; there were a ga-zillion moths surrounding the overhead signage that is beside the latte stand. We are overwhelmed with gnats, no-seeums, and little insects this year. Sure wish the bats & birds would eat more.

Hubby went up to Hoodoo Valley to pick up several semi loads of firewood; he will be selling it this winter.
Kels was still in too much pain to go canoe-ing. So she rested on the heating pad & later M&K went to introduce Bravo to Lucas - their other dog they left at Matt's parents house before they deployed to the UK. Lucas is a yellow lab. He is about 4 years old now.
After picking up poo, I took more pictures of the equipment working down at the site prep area, walked the dogs, did laundry for the kids & cleaned more of the house. 'Lil Bit escaped outside the fence, so I had to fortify it with more rocks to keep him inside. He finally settled down to a nap in the office with me.
A new Victorias Secret catalog came in the mail yesterday. I just ADORE the painted wall behind the model on the cover page. Sure wish I could have a wall in my house like this.
KRL-N bribed me into going to CDA with her - she not only drove, but bought me a Starbucks latte. All I had to do was go with her to Kohls (and Super One where we got some groceries). K bought an shirt at Kohl's for her interview.
