Papa John and Two New Grandsons--Henry and Drew

Carol and I left Thursday April 22nd, 2010 for the DC area. This would be a very exciting trip as it would be the first time we would meet the two newest grandsons in the family (this makes 3 as the oldest is Kyle born to my son Derek and wife Lori back in May 2003).

We had a wonderful time with the boys along with family and friends.

Below are a couple of photos with me and Henry Grant Liddiard--born Feb 8th to Tab and Evan; and Drew Spencer Ovard born April 7th to Tracy and Odie.

Drew Spencer Ovard was born at 2:01 am on Wednesday April 7th, 2010. Drew weighed 7.6 pounds and is 20 inches long. Proud parents Tracy and Odie are doing well. Photos posted are from his aunt Tabitha. Mother and Drew will be leaving for home Friday.


I am very blessed with this 5th grandchild and 3rd grandson! Carol and I are looking forward to seeing both new grandsons (Henry Grant Liddiard and Drew) the end of April as we attend their blessings in Arlington.

Shed is Completed (4-2-2010)






















The above photos were taken today as the shed was completed. This took me about two (2) weeks from start to finish--not bad as a solo project and with my left thumb seriously injured by hammer the first day.




All and all, this was a fun project as it allowed me to mix new and old materials-reducing overall costs as planned.




Over the next few weeks I hope to add some shelves and cabinets as part of the tractor bay where work on it and oil changing of Ranger will take place!




Enjoy!
