Well, things are moving ahead. Sometimes Alvin thinks there is no progress, but there is! For the past week or two, Will has been here taping drywall. What a job! But he keeps plugging along except for when the boys invite him to share a coffee break! It is nice when I am not at work - because then they get not only lunch but coffee too!
Today Michael picked up the blower for the insulation. And they got to work, laying the base of the insulation in the attic. There is more insulation coming up from Menards, but in the meantime - they worked all day. It was quite something to see them - like snowmen! The insulation is made up of newspaper (or something like that) and so there is a fair bit of fluff with it all.
And, it is noisy! Michael is up in the attic and Alvin is feeding the insulation into the hopper.
It is a joint project. And they are both fluffy because of it!
Thought you would enjoy a couple pictures. The house is looking more and more like a HOUSE!!
I just picked up the paint samples so we will be choosing those soon! So much to do!! I continue to give this project to the Lord, and ask - that you keep us in your prayers. Thanks.

I can just imagine the ring around the bath tub tonight!
back to work
I am standing in the great room - and looking up.
Alvin is in the bedroom to the right of the catwalk.
To the left of the catwalk is the "sanctuary"
in Alvin's "spare" time ~ he put together a play structure
for our little grandson Ev, who loves to visit.
People who know me ~ know that I love daisies.
There are many many daisies at the lake - and I often wished we could transplant some.
The other day, in our front yard I noticed something growing...
Yes, it was daisies!
They were like a "kiss" from God that day!
