Christmas 2008

We spent Christmas at home this year. The Padgham's made the trip down to Dallas to spend it with us. It was a very fun and busy holiday vacation. Started off with a wonderful Christmas Day full of presents, cooking and eating. Then over the next several days, Bryan, Bruce and Jon (with a little help from Topher, of course) built a couple of really beautiful cedar fence's and a gate in our backyard (fence/gate designed by Padg himself...he's so talented). Shari and I did most of the staining. Ain't it pretty? ;) They also laid a brick patio outside the shop. And in addition to all that, Bruce and Shari still found time to do some work on our kitchen floors. We stripped the old linoleum off a couple of months ago and needed to get the old glue off to get it ready to be sanded and stained, so they spent a lot of time doing that for us. We sure do appreciate all their help.
