RIP Phoenix

 We said goodbye to our Phoenix yesterday. She was the little kitty that the kids found on the side of Phoenix Road on the way to the bus stop. She was a sweet girl who became the queen of the house and spent many hours with Nick laying on a chair while he worked.

 She was very loved and is already missed so much. Rest easy, Phoenix.

New Ride

 Thanks to a deer, Nick got a new (to us) truck. Goodbye GMC Sierra. Hello Honda Ridgeline.

Take 1- Toyota dealer but had issues so was returned

Take 2- LaCrosse dealer and the one we ended up with

Sixteen

 He wanted steak, mashed potatoes and angel food cake.  He got a new guitar.  He's still working on his driving hours (mostly at night) to be able to get his license.  Happy 16th, Charlie!
