Before and After

A few weekends ago the weather was nice in the evening and Hubby was fixing the van in the garage. The boys set up a "basketball court".

I called it "redneck basketball". Our big gift to the boys for Christmas (given early so we didn't have to transport it twelve hours away and then back home) was a portable goal. Whatever gave us that idea? The Homer bucket is now retired...

Do you like M's (on the right) new hair cut? We did that the first day of break. He was so excited to have his hair done at a "salon" instead of home.

More info on the van: Hubby has done lots of work on it and has saved loads of money. He has also taken to a local place and gotten new tires, alignment, some transmission stuff he didn't want to waste his time one, etc. He's taken it there five times. I think today it's all finally done (hope so, we'll be on the road soon). The shop also refunded his money for our trouble.
