This is the only picture I could find of Great-Grandpa Guenther.
If you look closely at the sign on the porch, you can see what type of business he owned.
A few weekends ago, I started the process of weeding and edging our herb garden. I exposed a brick that was completely covered with grass. Then another. And another. Pretty soon I uncovered a brick pathway that was entirely overgrown with grass. Christa and Ethan were out while I was doing this.
When they arrived home, I excitedly told Christa to go out back to see the surprise I found. She walked over to the little pond and I pointed her in the right direction. She was nearly on top of the new pathway and asked “What am I looking for exactly?”. I said, “that new brick pathway right next to you!” To her defense, she rarely goes over to that side of the yard. Oh well, I think it looks nice anyway!
Mom and Dad gave us these old lamps a few years ago. I never really liked the lamps when we were growing up. And they never fit in with our furniture at our house in Middletown. But when we redid the master bedroom in our new house, we thought they would look nice. The problem was, the wiring was old and the lamps were pretty dirty. So I cleaned them up and rewired them. Now they look great!
