    Welcome to 2017, Cindy et al!!!! I remember seeing the extra storage "barn" being built-I could sure use one of those (or 2...). You are also very lucky to have some muscle to help out, I am truly a DIYer, all by myself-makes the picture taking a little tricky  ! Nice to meet you and your family!

      Thanks Melissa! I love my storage she-shed and have pretty much filled it up at the moment, collecting some great furniture pieces to redo!

    Welcome to Hometalk, Cindy! You have a lovely family and it sounds like they keep you busy, along with your DIY projects. I look forward to seeing more of what you do.

    I live near Montreal, Quebec in Canada and also mom of grown-up kids. The three were just here, with their partners, for the holidays and I just loved all the loud bustle, laughs and fun times we had with them. The two youngest, 22 and 25, live at home still, as they go to university in Montreal. With a bit more time to myself coming up, I hope to get back to some of my DIY projects and share with you all here at HT. We have a cottage in Nova Scotia, a 13 hour drive from here, and we will start going back and forth come April. I tend to make a lot of projects for our house there.

    Nice to meet you! :)

    I am in the UK and love this site but would like to contact like minded people to share ideas and form friendships with. My husband too was in the military - The royal Air Force - and is now retired. I used to have lots of penfriends and would love to hear from anyone who is interested in forming a 'Hometalk' friendship group. My email is: lynnemm25@aol.com

    Very nice to meet you Cindy, and your great looking family. I live in South Georgia. Love the winters here, but I 'm a KY girl 50+ years and get homesick at times for snow. I have a wonderful fiancé, who like to raise turkeys, chickens, too,(one wants him to walk around the yard, holding her in his arms! She pecks his shoes until she gets what she wants! (I think I have a rival). Anyway, I love giving my ideas to others , but can't do them. Happy decorating and Happy New Year!!

  • Banjojane66 Banjojane66 on Jan 08, 2017

    Ditto on the appreciation of freedom from John's service in Navy. My husband was killed while at Fort Knox.

    • Cindy Hagemann Cindy Hagemann on Jan 08, 2017

      Sorry about your loss. We lived in SE GA in St. Marys - my kids were raised there while Jon was stationed at Kings Bay Naval Submarine Base. I look forward to hearing your ideas!

  • Sue Peet Sue Peet on Jan 16, 2017

    Welcome Cindy,

    My father was on a submarine during WWII, both my husband and I were in the Navy stationed mainly in Brunswick, Maine. Thank your husband for his service and for you too.

    We currently live in Battle Creek, Michigan been here since 2004. I have many interests, trying to do more repurpose projects. You have a nice looking family and you sure have the skill in creating. I'll have to check out your group on Facebook. I really enjoy meeting new people, have many friends on that website.
