The Kids Arrive

Below is a photo of the kids, now including Zach and Christian. Zach is a freshman in high school, and Christian is a 6th grader in middle school. It’s a good thing that all these kids get along…mostly!

While the kids play, Dave is busy fixing the toilet. I just love plumbing jobs – not! They always seem to grow as one unexpected thing breaks after another, requiring multiple trips to the hardware store. Today I’m trying to avoid this by replacing virtually every part inside the tank! I’m even taking all the old pieces with me to the store to make sure I don’t forget anything and get the correct sizes. Still, I’d lay odds that this job won’t end without another trip to Ace.
