Evan & Evelyn

Now here are a couple of people whose first names start with Ev......, Evan Tweddell and Evelyn Glenn.

The Ev... people are sitting on top of Evelyn's bunkbed. Just today (Saturday, May 17, 2008) we tore the carpeting out of Evelyn and Meredith's room. The hardwood floors underneath the old, disgusting carpet looks pretty good. Don't you think so, Meredith?

"Yes, I really like it. It has some "YICK" on it but it's good for my room."

It was a wonderful day ripping up carpeting. Both Evelyn and Meredith helped. Evelyn spent nearly the entire time pulling up staples and nails from the floor. About halfway through the job, she found an easier way to do it and was just thrilled.

Meredith and I did the cutting, rolling and taping of the carpet and Meredith carried all the rolled carpet to the basement and put them in a neat pile.

We swept the room and reorganized. Now it looks great. It is something new! We put a navy blue carpet remnant down. It was the one that was in Clint's room but he decided that he didn't want it anymore, so we "stole" it for Meredith and Evelyn's room.

Pap, Peg, Gary and Lisa came to eat dinner with us. They brought Evan. Joe and Ann were in Philadelphia at a wedding.
