My Grandparent's (Roden) Home
I had the opportunity to take some pics of my Grandpa and Grandma Roden's home a couple of weeks ago! I sure do miss them! There are SOO many memories in this home! This home was built in 1915 and I believe my grandparent's moved in, around 1952???

My Grandpa was very creative/talented, to say the least! These held all his screws, etc!
Can't forget something to wipe your hands off on...
Grandpa's workshop (a.k.a candy room) - we also used to make all the candy/chocolates in the workshop every year around Christmas time!
The drafting table. My Grandpa was VERY creative! He had to turn down a job at Disney during the great depression as he was given an opportunity to work at Douglas Aircraft (???) sooner than he would be able to start w/Disney!

Can anyone tell what my Grandpa's favorite color was? If you couldn't figure it out - it was - PURPLE! Ha ha!
This pic is for Brett (electrical box/breaker/whatever)

Looking into the funeral room - I know - kinda creepy that they actually had those in homes back then!
Kylee - Where Are You???
Happy Turkey Day
This Thanksgiving was awesome, as usual! We got to spend the entire day w/my family eating, visiting, eating, decorating gingerbread cookies, eating, playing games - and - did I meantion eating??? I loved every minute of it! I truly do love my family and am very lucky to have my three sisters as they are my best friends! I am also grateful for my parents, as they are great examples to me! I only hope I can be half as good as parents as they are to us!!

Happy Halloween!
After Blaine and Kris' Halloween party, we came home to hurry and carve Kylee's BIG pumpkin before trick-or-treating!
