Retirement Life at the Lakehouse

I retired June 2009 and I have spent much more time at The Lakehouse. I have enjoyed each and every day and have not had a bored moment. I stay so busy doing things I want to do that I rarely find myself idle. I guess with the major remodeling complete there has not been as much to post. This is a new phase of life at The Lakehouse and maybe I can post retirement memories.

2nd Week of April

Spring Breaks and Easter s last a long time this year. We have always had more than one Christmas but this is the 1st time I recall having 2 Easters. Brooke has been being here during Easter for as long as I can remember, this year with Easter early and Brooke's spring break at a different time we had Easter 2 times. That means 2 Rabbit cakes, lol.



Tanner and Brooke hunted the eggs.




















Blake hid the eggs.


The computer has all the kids attention. These 5 really get along pretty good most of the time.





Blake being his lil mischevious self. He just can't help it and who better to pick at bud "Dear Ole Dad".

Brooke left on Monday and went back to North Carolina. It is always a sad time for all of us. Tanner and Tyler came by after school to say bye to her. I had to say bye before I left for work, but it will onluly be 7 weeks til we go get her for the summer.

The rest of the week went fast. we went to Tanners game on Tuesday and they won again was a very good game. I missed the Thursday night game cause we were on the road to Bama, and I have not heard how that went. Kyle and Blake did get their progress reports on Thursday and I know Kyle's were acceptable but I have not heard if he got his wheels back.



We have been at the lake this weekend and here are a few pics of the progress. We are leaving after I post this headed back to Mississippi and hope to come back next weekend and see some walls up, lol.

This is a view of the azaleas...





This is the view of the carport or the beginning of the carport.






This is where the covered porch and
1 bathroom will be and also a pantry
off from the kitchen.
This is the new air conditioner for the existing part... we also got all new ductwork there and there is a big difference in the airflow for sure. I think we will see a big difference this summer.
This is a picture of the floor joist in the bedroom addition. I think we will have plywood floors and walls when I come back.
This is a picture of the bulk head that is being built to allow an easier access to the basement area that is there now, we will be able to use this for storms we hope.
This is a view from the road side of the
future entry to the house from the front.
I will post pictures as I get them. I hope to go look evert 2 weeks for sure and every week when I can.
