The Garden Door

It took a while, but it's in. Take a look....





Up on the Roof


Over the last week we, I mean Steve, has been up on the roof. First it was to remove the different items littering our roof and the second time was to replace the shingles on the back part of the house.

Tim was here this weekend. The two guys worked hard to first take down the back greenhouse...or whatever it was. Then they stripped the roof of its 5 layers of shingles and re-shingled it. 





Drywalling





It is taking a lot longer to drywall than we expected. The main problem is that our house is not straight. Being a 100 year old home has caused some walls and floors to shift. It sure has been an adventure.

Friends and Family

In the last little while, we have had so many friends and family lend a hand. We wanted to let you know how blessed we felt to have the support of friends and family. A few weeks ago we were feeling the crunch. God heard our prayers, literally, and delivered. The past week and a half we have had my parents, brother and a number of friends, Tyson, Aaron, Ryan and Levi, lend a hand. Thank you sooo much. You all lifted our spirits and gave us a little more energy just by being there.  In the past week, we have also received a few phone calls and e-mails for other people we love who are just too far away to come help out. I just wanted to tell you how much that means to us.

Ryan's first wall!
