HAPPY HALLOWEEN

Hope everyone has fun trick or treating. We are off to the church's Trunk or Treat night. Since my digital camera is broken you will all have to wait to see the girls in their costumes. Once we get film developed and uploaded to the computer I will post the pictures.

Other news McKenna and I will be participating in the Niketown 3 mile run(actually I will be walking) so we will have to take pictures from race day also.


In regards to the house they are pouring the cement for sidewalks and driveways and when ours is done we will post a picture.

Heres the Picture of the Houses on the Block

Well the closing date is November 27, 2007. We will see if the final hurdle will be enough. We have done all we can but in this day of mortgages we will see what happens. So until someone puts the breaks on we will continue to plan. We do have

It looks so beautiful. We will probably get the driveway soon. This week they are supposed to finish painting the ceilings and baseboards and start the cabinets this week. We are so excited.

The girls can't wait and are even doing school projects about the new house for a mapping project.

We won't have Thanksgiving in the new house but the girls are excited for Christmas. Hopefully family can come down to the house this year.

Work continues to go well and busy.

So the packing begins and in about a month we will be in the new house.

WE HAVE A CLOSING DATE !!!!!!!

We went over to the house today and to give updates and we got the news that our closing will be NOVEMBER 27,2007. We will try and get pictures of the inside, they painted the inside today. We will try and get pictures since we had a camera stop working. We are excited.

Update on House

Here is the latest picture of the house. Paint on the outside. Texturing on the walls has begun on the inside.

Sometime next month we will be moving.

Things are still looking good for closing.

October 15, 2005

Well they have started the stucco on the house and it is drying. Now they are working also on the inside and the drywall is up and the inside will begin. Due date for house to be done after Thanksgiving and before Christmas.

The girls are coming home YEAH !!!!!!!!!!!!!! We are so excited.

McKenna is having activity days recognition night and has to start back to school.

So far things are still a go, so we keep on moving along and hope things will go our way until the end.

update

Kids are having fun with grandpa.
Plugging away at work for mommy.

No news on house, nothng new on outside, inside drywall/sheet rock or whatever it si called is going up should be done this week and then the inside starts.

SUNNY DAY

Only in the Southwest is it in the 60's and your daughter wears her winter parka to school. LOL But it is chilly I guess after 110 plus degrees in the summer. 60's feels cold.


Today on the house they are starting to put up the drywall/sheet rock. Pretty soon the stucco will go on.

They had said first week in November I still think it will be the week AFTER thanksgiving.

ART IN THE PARK

Today we went to ART IN THE PARK. We purchased a few prints. I am going to have to save some money for next year. The artwork I wanted was $5000. YES, so we left in there. I will be saving and maybe next year we can purchase it. I have a perfect spot for it in the new house.

Not much on the outside of the house to report. The roof tiles are there and ready to be applied. The stucco will go on soon. On the inside the insulation is up and they will be putting up sheet rock soon. Prediction end of November ( I still think December).

We did find renters YEAH !!!!!!! Not the route we wanted to go but grateful for them. Houses still go up for sale and sale in our neighborhood so we will try again soon.

McKenna had her first CHORALE PERFORMANCE and did absolutely awesome.

We had unexpected visit from Jasons parents and it was really good to see them. My dad and sister are coming tomorrow and that was a suprise but they can see the house and McKenna can sing for her grandpa tomorrow.

We ran out of pull ups and had to finish off DIAPERS. Wrong choice it si back to pull ups for Marielle as she tries to go with those. I think we will have to eventually go cold turkey.

New for me I am checking into going back to school and getting either a Masters in Health Administration/MBA or Family Nurse Practitioner--this is not something I would start until Fall 2008 or later. Just looking hard at options and deciding which way to go and what would work best for our family.

ART IN THE PARK

This is some art from ART IN THE PARK, here in town. THese are made out of nails and go for just under $50,000.
