Hey, I'm on a role. I told you I would update more often. Below are some pics of our new granite countertops (we've needed to replace our kitchen countertops for couple years now). In short, I got granite for the same price as laminate (I paid a couple hundred more, but it was a no brainer) so we had it installed Monday, it pays to know the right people. I did all the demo work, had to replace one of the side cabinets because of water damaged caused by a blown dishwasher a year or two ago and some drywall repair. All in all it turned out pretty nice we thought, take a look below and see for yourselves...

I replaced the board under the sink inside the cabinet and tiled over it. It looks nice but I did it to make it easy to clean up water and minimal damage if we ever have a leak again.

We kept our "old" sink, cleaned it up a bit.

I (Shane) want to apologize because we haven't "blogged" in while, but just to catch everyone up to speed. In a nutshell, I'm going back to school to get my bachelors degree in Business and when I grow up I want to be a Facilities Manager. We are currently renting our house out (while I'm at school) and living with the in-laws...yeah, its real interesting. We are survivors and its for the better cause.

(whew) on the Sixth of February I had the opportunity to take Sarah and Jason to Disney World. I had a friend who works there get us in for free...YIPEEEE!! We...had...a...BLAST!!! We arrived at nine in the morning and didn't leave until seven thirty that evening. They were troopers and exausted by the end of the day. Lets just say that not even five minutes passed in the van and I heard heavy breathing, they were zonked. Below are a couple of pics from our adventure and below that some recent photos of the kids.

Anyway, we have access to internet now all the time and hopefully will be updated the website much more often. Until then....

SEE YA!
