So this last Thursday night, Rachel, my Dad, Fatina, Aunt Barb and myself racked around 175 bottles of wine. There was of course some sampling that had to take place, just to see if it tasted proper. It does, just in case you were wondering. Spring break was great and a much needed pause that I've needed for quite sometime. I didn't get caught up on anything that I should have dealing with school though. Needless to say I'm going to be doing tons of homework tonight and throughout the week to put myself back on course.
Rowan has started walking. He's not blazing all over the house yet, but I figure it's only a matter of weeks until I'm chasing him all over the place. He took his first steps while Rachel and the boys were out of town in Bloomington, IL visiting some of Rachel's family. Rachel was kind enough to catch the act on video and send it to me.
Rachel and I are trying to decide what to do to the house next. We are definitely painting it this summer, but besides that we are both pleading a case for what we want to do next. Either way there is going to be some stuff getting done on the house. Any advice from people would be great. Right now it's painting the house and the rest is between fixing the garage, putting in new windows, redoing the kitchen, redoing the bathroom, putting in a patio, fixing the back porch on the second floor, or putting in new sofet and fascia. Of course we may be able to do a few of these depending on how far we can stretch our money. Any advice please let me know.

Crazy Times!
There's been a ton going on here in the past couple of weeks. School is back in full swing for me. Both boys are growing like weeds. Rowan gets his 9 month pics taken today so I should have some new pics to post here very soon.
Wine making is coming along quite well. I have 60 more bottles to do from the kit wines this month, that will probably be done tomorrow. After that I can start another 3 batches to be done at the first part of April. The really good stuff will be done at the end of this month. Not only is that going to be a sloppy drinking day, but I have a feeling there is going to be a lot of people here helping out as we have around 200 bottles to do that day. Can't wait.
