Extreme Home Makeover






The Fleming House has been undergoing an Extreme Home Makover the past few weeks. Gone is the linoleum floor, fermica countertops and cheap tile backsplash..........Replaced with tile flooring, granite countertops and natural stone backsplash. Last addition will be new stainless appliances which we should arrive in a couple weeks.
Amanda and I are excited about the new look. We look forward to having everyone see it.
Special shoutout to Mike/Mitsy, Danny C and Stan.

Fishing




We did a little fishing the last 2 weekends at Fork. The weather hasn't fully cooperated this spring but we do have some success stories.

Luke caught this monster catfish off the dock on his Cars Lightning McQueen rod and reel (4-5lbs). We did find out Luke's not a big fan of catfish because they talk and sound a little scary. He also prefers to drive the boat rather than to fish. We'll have to work on that.
I caught this 6.71lb female, despite her attempts to wrap me around some timber. Secret bait not to be disclosed.

The Dallas Arboretum





We finally made our first trip out to the Dallas Arboretum last Saturday, Mar 27th. It is high season right now for tulips, so it was jam packed with people, but it didn't bother us any. We packed a picnic lunch and enjoyed it on the lawn, overlooking the lake, while listening to music. After that we checked out the Tee pee, wagon and little houses...Luke loved it!
