House Pictures

Well, we have been in our house for almost a month, and it is almost finished. Of course as most of you know when you own a house you are never "finished". We still have THE LIST of things that we want to fix or update, but for the most part we are settled. Here is a slide show of all of the work that Steve and a congregation member have done so far on the outside of our house.

As well as working hard outside and at church, Steve worked VERY hard to clear out the garage. Since I can't lift much, most of the work was done by him. Most of the boxes are gone, we just have a few that need to be sorted out, but most of it is my old teaching stuff, so it is up to me to rearrange.

Here are the pictures of the inside of the house, before and after.

Last weekend we had a "Thank You" party for all of those people who have helped us get our house ready. It was a huge success, and we now know that our house holds around 45 people!

As for life outside of our house, the baby is due in less than three weeks, and we finally feel pretty ready. We finally got the dresser, diapers and a new coming home outfit. I even pulled out the gender nutral outfits and washed them.

Isaiah is growing faster and faster. He is like a little parrot and repeats EVERYTHING that we say and do. He even puts his fork down and takes a drink when I do during meals. We go to story time every week at the library, but he usually just watches until the end. He loves to dance, jump and create trouble.

We have enjoyed all of the warm fall weather, but we fear the winter is near. We are trying to enjoy all of the time we can outside.
