All right already...
I'm back, finally. Well, Francis took some pictures today. The first one is a picture of the side of the house that I didn't have a before pic for.
 That's vertical siding. We didn't want the regular stuff. Looks good doesn't it? The guys are doing a great job. Below I will put a before and after.
 We got a french door put in and of the course the balcony railing. We plan to paint that white to go along with all the rest of the trim but that isn't a priority right now so it may be awhile. We also want to paint the garage doors white to match and to add some light fixtures. It's a big big difference isn't it? We're so excited.
It's so pretty. The weather shows rain for the next week so I'm not sure how much will be accomplished outside. Hopefully we can get something inside to look liveable. Last Saturday the Campbell Clan came up and helped us clean up a bunch of the tear out and stuff. Emma and Melody ran up in the woods all day. They saw a garter snake. Emma asked if it guards people. I said, no. She said well why is it called a guarder snake then? She ended up with five ticks on her. Benjamin was a huge help. He worked very well with Francis and Brandan. Poor Meg wasn't feeling very well so she kind of just layed around. I brought one of Emma's little tables and some kid chairs and our portable dvd player with us just in case but those kids were so excited they didn't really watch the movies. In the evening just before dark we were sitting on our new back deck and we saw a big owl way up in a tree. Brandan started owl talking and before too long it did it's little hoot thing. Then a few minutes later over in the corner came another owl answering back and then it went and landed in the tree beside the first one and they starting talking. That was so cool. None of us had ever seen anything like that before. They were huge. A few minutes later one flew off and then the other. Benjamin spotted the groundhog running up through the woods. He doesn't live under the deck anymore but he didn't move away though. He lives down in the culvert by the road now. Benjamin wants to go groundhog hunting. Sorry I have been awol for so long. We've just been so busy working and then trying to get our living in house ready and trying to get the wanting to live in house ready and then working some more. Well, as most of you know I could keep talking for who knows how long. I mean, that's where Emma got it, so I hear. But I'll stop now so I have something left to say next time. Thanks for checking back. Jenni |

Welcome back
It had been so long that I had about given up. The deck and doors really look nice. We are looking forward to going to school with Emma tomorrow. See you in the morning.

WOW GUYS!!!
I've been checking your "home site" about every few days to see how things are going and it's lookin' good! Are you and family doing all the work, or have you had to pay anyone to help with some of the major stuff? We can't wait to see it in person (and you guys too), let us know a good time!
Love, Sarah |
