WOO HOOO IT IS FINISHED

The carpet that is...Oh my my it took this Gentleman 12 hours to lay this carpet. He got here today at 9:45 and left tonight at 10:00 pm...He was very slow but he did a great job. And we found out he knows Jesus as his personal Savior!!! That is awesome. Any way Dad is off tomorrow and wants to get the bedroom and living area moved in...They are so excited for their new place or so excited to get away from us LOL It may be a little of both, but we all can understand that. So the first picture here is their main entrance door, the door their friends and loved ones will come to, to visit them. The pink paper on the hard wood floor is left down for the carpet guy to set his things on with out scratching the floor. Also see the sweeper vac right behind that is phase 3. we will be making a doorway right behind it for the bathroom. But 2ND phase is the kitchen that will be put up in October, it goes on the rest of the hard wood floor, see where the bedroom doors are leaning that is all kitchen.
Good old Mom you never know when she will show up. Actually she was in bed, but got excited when she found out the carpet was done and the guy was gone...She had to come and see!!! The door she is coming through goes from our laundry room into her HOME.. that is how we get back and forth....Dad and I both agree there will be big huge locks on both sides...to keep mom on her side and keep dogs and kids on their side Ha Ha...We so love them.....

Here is Daddy stepping back and taking a good look at their new HOME or I forgot LOVE NEST as Mom calls it...is that not so cute...Autumn says stop that is gross....We just laugh and laugh. Anyway Dad is standing just in from their front door looking into the bedroom see the doors are missing, they had to be taken down for the carpet to get laid. Dad also put all the wood blinds up yesterday it looks so nice. I hung the fall wreath on the sliding door going out to the patio. Mom got it for her birthday. we want to hang it on the front door for guest to see but I need to find a magnet hook like I have for the steel door.



This is bedroom as you walk in.


Mom as she came in through the laundry room into her Home. Just wait till tomorrows post..There will be furniture and it will start looking like home. Till then take care and I am heading to bed to get rest for the busy day tomorrow.

OUR WEEKEND OF CONCERTS AND FOOTBALL

Here is the score at half time, @ the hall of fame game. Looks like Titans will have another great year.

Getting ready for the big game Titans running on the field.


Here they were swearing in a new group for the military. These people have all chosen to protect us The UNITED States of America. I praise God for them all.


Before going into the stadium, we had VIP passes to one of the tents and we go to go in and eat have something to drink. Listen to the d.j. and dance if you wanted. At 95 degrees, I past on that. But it was air conditioned. Here is Dad and Michael, Michael's friend David came along as well as Hubby and I.



The pictures of the cheerleaders are for Autumn, Isn't football all about the cheerleaders???



It ended up being a nice night with a breeze, wasn't as humid as I thought it would be. We also got to back right next to the stadium, which was a God thing, The guy that does our painting has rentals there and he saved us a spot to park. Wooo Hooo.



Moving right along to Friday night at the Rascall Flatts Concert along with Darius Rucker (HOOTIE) from Hootie and the blow fish. This is Rascal Flatts.



We went to see them here at Blossom, it is an outside concert venue. It holds Alot of people they have pavilion and lawn areas. We had very great seats center middle in pavilion. BUT I got sooo very car sick on the way there, If you have never got motion sickness then you have know clue what I'm talking about. Plus I already had a Sinus headache and it was very humid and hot..OK I think you got what I'm trying to say. I felt like I wanted to die....Then we had to walk thru grass, gravel then walk ways about 2 miles or more to get into blossom. Let me tell you I had to stop and lean against a lamp post. I thought I was going to pass out. That's enough about my horrid sickness and lets get on to the concert.



When we did make it to our seats. It was Darius That started out. All I can say is he was fabulous..awesome I so enjoyed him. I kept video taping him so when it came to pictures I didn't get much..


Then out came the Rascal Flatts. They did good also, But I must be a bigger Darius Fan. So they said their good-byes to us and away they went till next year. So many people thought....We knew they were coming back out and Darius was going to come out with them. So fans were all leaving, grass area clearing out and then Out they came again and everyone just stopped. They played about another 1/2 hour and it was awesome the best part....
I can tell you now that I would never go back to blossom in the heat and have to park so far away. Going back it was all up hill and once we got to our car we never took it out of park for at least an hour. But we did make it home by 2 am.
