2016 with the Richards of Sweet Home
2016-- The highlight of January, was Kristin heading to winter formal. With no boyfriend in the picture, she was blessed to go with one of her besties, Tanya. They looked so beautiful, and had a great time. The night flew by, and before they knew it, it was time to be home. Sore feet from dancing, and memories to last a lifetime. She also learned some good skills with Dad while working on her truck, and making a ramp for her dog to get into her truck.
This is the new truck she bought in early DEC 2015, after rolling her first truck SEPT 2015. We are grateful for her safety and she's learning new things about taking care of a truck.
Ryan has been working at WILCO for almost a year, and the highlight for him this year was buying a truck. He too, bought an F250....so now our driveway has three Ford trucks. Of course the first thing you do, is crawl under it to check things out! The truck has some beauty marks, but Ryan has done a great job of making it his own.
March also brought a special guy to our family. Kristin met Jacob at school, but told him she didn't date guys at school and that she was only dating a guy that was a Christian. Jacob threw her off guard when he pulled the new testament out of his pocket...and it looked worn and used. Needless to say, their first date was to a Sunday evening church service. We loved him the minute we met him. They both seem to be perfect matches for each other.
Our first trip with him was to the coast for the day in April, and then dinner at our favorite place in Newport. Ryan even approves of him. Thankfully she is as loved by his family, as he is by ours.
We had a beautiful spring, and spent lots of time outside working on clean up from the winter. Kristin still has a swing in the chicken coop. Being she gave up her playhouse for their coop...she figures the least they can do is let her keep her swing in the tree.
Early May took Kristin and Bill to the tattoo shop to get piercings. Bill tried the Daith piercing, which has helped his migrains brought on in the head, however, the neck induced ones still plague him. He recently went to the DR and is starting physical therapy, and if nothing helps there, then they will run more tests. Kristin pierced her nose!!! It does look really cute! Mid May Bill and I headed to the coast for our 28th Wedding Anniversary. We stayed in Old Town Newport on the bay. We love it there.
Upon arriving home, the old electric range was moved out, and the new gas stove moved in.....OH happy day!!
