| October 2014 |
Wow! We’ve been here
almost a year??!!! That is hard to
believe. It was October 2014 when we first laid eyes on our house and here we are in October 2015 already. It has been an incredible year!
Let’s see…
It started at the closing with a new septic system, then we added a horse fence, painted the horse
fence (well, partially), cleaned out the barn, planted 10 or 12 trees, planted
a BUNCH of flowers and bushes, added a vegetable garden and several flower gardens (we have mulch coming out of our ears), painted
the living room, dining room and kitchen, updated the kitchen cabinets, bought
new furniture, restored some old furniture, fixed up the front porch, added a
new patio door, and a bunch of other additions, changes and updates.
We’ve shaved the dog, bought a new car, seen cats come and
go (long story) and in addition, God has allowed us to bring some wonderful
friends into our home for cook outs, cook ins, bonfires and evenings of
worship.
We’ve seen the most beautiful sunrises we could ever imagine
and gone to bed under beautiful starry skies.
We owe all of it to God! He has
truly blessed us!
Whew! I’m tired. But it doesn’t stop there…right now, we are
in the process of adding a wood burning stove in the living room, finishing
painting the fence, fixing up the chicken coop, and painting and updating the
family room. OK, so we are a little bit
busy with some projects. But they are
fun projects. I love seeing the
transformation happen.
Here are some before and after photos...
