Still Not Done...

So, it was yesterday afternoon and I was just waiting for the kids to get done taking their nap, and then I was going to drive over to the new place to check out our new roof. I get a call from Mike at 4 (yes, the kids were still sleeping!), and he said he drove by and it wasn't anywhere close to being done! Argh! It is just one thing after another with this house... all these promises from companies that they can get things done, or the house will close at this time, etc., but alas, once again we are let down. So frustrating! So, if you read this, pray for us, that it will get done today and that we can close by the weekend (which at this rate will be a miracle!).

Twas the Morning Before Work, and All Through the House...

Twas the morning before work, and all through the house, not a child was stirring, just me and my spouse. Mikes lunch was all made and packed away with care, now all he needed was his boots to wear. We searched high and low, not a pair in sight. It's clear to us now that Rachel moved them last night. When what to our wondering eyes should appear, but a bright shiny fork and eight crayons that lay near. We looked at each other and began to smile, who could possibly have thunk it, but our little child!

Demo Day

So, for those of you who don't know, we are on our way to finalizing the purchase of our home in Tigard, Oregon. Before the bank would lend us money though to buy the home, we were required to put a new roof on. So, Mike and some guys from work, started this morning at 6:30 and are still out there in the rain, tearing off the old, dilapidated roof. It's going well though and they should be done by today. By Tuesday, we should have a brand new, 30-year comp roof on there, and THEN we can close on our house and start on the rest of the remodeling!

Getting With it...

So I've finally decided to start a blog (and be like everyone else I know). What else am I going to do with all my free time! However, until I figure out how to do all of this, this is all you're getting for now!
