I can't believe I actually did it. Sigh. If I can just remember what I did for the next time around.

pet racoons (there are actually 2)

well, here I go again. This time I am getting brave and see if I can actually attach some photos of the 'before new windows' and after 'new windows' house. I also snug some ones from this summer in there.

As I said. I really don't know what I am doing. So the other day I finally decided to sent a condensed update and it posted as a comment on our wall. So, in cause anyone is interested to read it you have to scroll down to the comment section. In one of these days I'll get it.

Had a day off today and we decided to go to the temple. Since we usually go late of have made it on the hour we did not know they eliminated the on the half hour. It gave us a good half hour to ourselves in the chapel. It was great, except for the traffic on the way home. We left at ten and made it back home abt. 4.

our big changes

I finally framed the picture that used to be in the foyer table of my home town

Dad wanted some color on the wall. I gave him his wish in the downstairs bedroom. We finally decided this had to be it, after mixing a color I could live with.

playroom, still needs finishing touches. The 2 outside walls are the green. It looks quite nice.

Our park like backyard. I guess we really needed the rain, the yard is turning brown.

Our bedroom

Thanks to Kelcie I am finally updating our blog. As you all know by now we have been working on the house. Painting and painting and more painting. As in me.(painting) Dad has been working hard
outside and it has never looked this good. We now have a definate property line. Thanks to the old lawnmower and many bent blades. Also all the weeds around the 90+ trees are gone and sprayed.

Big thanks to Greg and his family for helping us pick the color for the house and all the work they put into getting it painted. We could have never done it without their help. Kelcie knows when to get sick and for how long to get out of the work. Just kidding she would have been ok with not being sick. ANd than poor Jaren and Kaelyn caught that nasty bug. It sure did not turn out to be a fun vacation for them.

We are looking forward to see most of you soon. Ashlee and Gerrit are here right now for Ashlee's class reunion.

Hope you enjoy the pictures.

Love Mom, Dad and Kelcie
