more progress

Wow, we are really making some progress now. I am so excited. I was imagining what the house would look like when it was done but it was really hard for me. Now, we have done enough that it is easy for me to see it. It looks so awesome!!! I will enclose some pictures in a minute.

Dylan helping. Michael said he was a huge help this day!!

The new header for the new entrance

Me, I was pulling the nails out of the plywood so it could be removed.

The new entrance, Ken and I added the new side light and moved the front door. Man was it heavy!!!
We are all doing well, just busy as you can imagine. The boys are doing good in school, we just have to keep on Dylan, he is being really lazy and doesn't do as well as he can. We keep telling him that if he is doing this with no effort, think of what he could do with a little effort!!! BOYS!! It goes right in one ear and out the other, that is only when they are not so clogged up with wax that he doesn't hear a word we say! Dylan and Dalton are doing well in violin. I don't think as well as they were in England but it is a different method here, (they actually have to learn to read the music at this stage!) All 3 boys are doing great in Awana and we are having a great time. I am really enjoying being a leader for T n T. I do miss alot of my friends from England and for some reason, it is a little hard for us to get settled back into our church. Not sure why that is, all of the senior adults are happy to see us but I am at conflict with the reception I am getting from people in our Sunday School class and our age. Weird, I can't explain it but I just pray that we are where we are supposed to be and if not that God will lead us there.

I can hardly believe that October is nearly over. Michael is preparing to head east! He is ready to get this underway. Stinks that he will be gone for all the holidays but we have done it before and will deal with it. The 2 1/2 months will fly by I am sure. Then he plans to finish his Masters. He has it all mapped out which just means that something will happen to mess it all up right???

Well, I must run for now. I have errands to run before I go to Ironwood to work. Enjoy the pictures and have a great day. Love to you all!!

Hey Susan,

You house looks awesome! When will it be done?

That stinks that Mike will be gone all of the holidays!

The weater was 89 degrees one day and the next night it hit 32! YUCK!! But at least the sun is shining, I am thankful for that.

See ya!
