Earl

  Years ago we turned our garage into a large TV/family room. We still call it the New Room even though it is probably about twelve years old now. Then Gary divided our really small family room into a bedroom and a toy area. Since we only have two kids living here full time that little bedroom is now an office of sorts for Gary and I. Gary uses his half to work on family history. We call the room Earl after one of my ancestors, Earl Teagarden,who compiled several books of family research. I use my half to keep our family somewhat organized, I read and write in my journal there and have high hopes to finish the kids scrapbooks this year. I love the quiet in the Earl. On one wall we have hanging five generations of my family. Here is a small glimpse of what I see from my desk:
