Being Outdoorsy-ish

This weekend, Kevin left for a week-long wilderness trip with our church.

So I decided to try anything humanly possible to keep distracted from the fact that I won't be speaking with my husband until Thursday!

To pay homage to Kevin, who is likely carrying a canoe on his shoulders as I type, I tried my hand at several "manly" things; things that usually he takes care of for me. :)

And cleaning the garage, something that never seems to stay clean, no matter how hard we try!
