Cool New House

I wanted there to be a bit of closure... Last week we received our 2nd and last "load" of house-hold items (we moved back in 2 weeks ago, but it took 2 weeks to get all of our stuff re-ozoned / cleaned).

So here is what the house looked like the day of our house-fire;



Here is a couple of pictures, right before we moved back in! We upgraded the cabinets, the lights, and put in a wood floor in the family room. It was nice to know we had the money to do so!

Same corner of the kitchen that burnt...




This is Heather, she is the one saved by the firemen who gave her mouth-to-mouth


This is Henry, he has gotten a bit, uh husky...


We still have 3 cats and 2 dogs, and they are glad to be home!

Thanks to all, God bless,

Ed & Terry Tinker

Jeez Ed,

I think we need to hold a lottery to get Henry to Jenny Craig's.

That's great. Nothing like being home again.

I love the kitchen, Ed. The granite counter tops are really cool. Now you have what appears to be a better place to live now. It was worth the wait.

If y'all come into town, you're welcome to stay here (one night, then I start charging luger rent )

Howard and Ron, you can be free, but that is because of your wives being so nice

Overstaying guests that can't come up with "luger rent" become cat food. From the looks of things I would guess Henry has eaten at least three.

Nice digs Ed. Glad you are back in and hope you enjoy it for many years to come.
