Let it Snow!!!

  It was New Years Day.  Fresh Snow on the ground.  New life.  New Adventures ahead.  Exactly what I knew was going to happen.  How did I know? Well, read here.  Man! How our lives changed so rapidly in October when babe got that call.
  It's kind of neat to look back and remember what the Lord told me and have it all revealed in October.  By that time I was thinking that maybe nothing was going to change, maybe I was just hearing things, or even hearing what I want to hear... never will I doubt that He always does what He says He'll do. 
 






On my way home from dropping skater boy off at school I thanked the Lord for bringing us here to the Four Corners and recalled the prayers in which I told the Lord that I would like to be a SAHM and to have a home of our own even if it meant sacrificing the comforts and friendships of CA.
The Lord does hear us and will do far more abundantly than all we ask or think.  Eph 3:20

Phase Three: The Living Room

The living room is the room that just needs to get done. I thought the same way about the kitchen since I tend to spend more time there, but the living room is the first room people see when they first enter your home. We are making progress now that one useless section of the living room turned into little Z's room. Now we are waiting on me (and my in laws) to do a little sanding and painting...oh yeah, let's not forget the beginning stages of my accent wall.  The planks are reclaimed wood from the barn on the property.

L.J's Closet

There was a "closet" in L.J's room but it opened to the master bedroom, so not very practical.  Babe and all his wondrous skills closed it off, insulated it and found shiplap wood around the property and 
voilĂ !
