Fire! Fire!

We had a little emergency this week. On Wednesday evening we decided to have an early dinner and sit on the front porch and enjoy the evening. The noseeums (size of a gnat but bites like a mosquito) have been awful lately so we moved two of our tiki torches from the back yard to the front yard. About 45 mins into our front porch fun, we saw our neighbor about 6 doors down out so we decided to walk over to his house to ask him a question about his porch. Fast forward 30 mins later and there is a family walking down the street and then running down the street to put the FIRE out that was occurring in our pine straw! We noticed the chaos and quickly ran to put the fire out. Thank goodness for that couple! Our cars were in our way of seeing the fire from where we were standing. Everything is ok except the tiki torch that caught on fire and a little bit of pine straw.

Chris did some enhancements to the front yard this week. He added some railroad ties to the flower beds and around the tree in the front yard. He also bought some small tables with mini tiki torches on them. Please know that we will NEVER leave a tiki torch unattended again!

The project of the day was the under cabinet lighting in the kitchen. I've got some before and after pics for you. We had the builder do the prewire and we (Chris) did the rest of it today. I LOVE it!
This little project unfortunately shows us how dirty the wall is behind the stove. We really need to get the backsplash done.

Until next time....
