Hi, My name is Bonnie. I always have some type of project going on. I love cooking, gardening, crafts, reading other's blogs and hanging out with my family. Speaking of my family... They are wonderful and I love them dearly. I have an incredible husband, amazing kids... and the greatest dog in the world...Walter! The greatest part of my life though... I have a Savior who died for me.

I love stucco!


This last month we discovered we have carpenter bee's... I thought at first it was termites (wishful thinking). Those little boogers are destructive. I think we killed them, now we have to repair the 30+ holes they have put in the house.

A word to the wise, buy a stucco house built with anything but logs. This is log-rot which has already drank $300 worth of epoxy.

One day, the house will be done... and I can sit under the porch and enjoy the hard labor we did. yes, one day!

  2. We had fierce carpenter bees that chewed through all our lumber on the porch, etc. this summer. I could honestly hear them chewing all day long when I was outside. The tunneling systems they make are a sight to behold, no? I hope your bees stay far away.
