House - Weeks #10 & 11

Since we were gone to NC to welcome Perry home, I did not get week 10 posted. So I'm playing catch up now with both weeks. Sorry. When we returned from our trip, we were astonished to see all that had been done while we were gone. To recap: the brick was completely finished, the roof was finished (except over the front porch, where the rock layers were working - but it was completed today), the rock was hand cut and laid, being completed, the entire house was dry walled and was sanded today, lighting was picked out and ordered, and appliances were ordered. There's just as much going on for this week, but I'll save it to go with the new pics, which will probably include the inside. Sorry about all the pics to come...

Halloween Fun!!

I know I'm late getting these Halloween pics up. Sorry! Friday, Alysa went to school wearing Halloween "dress", but not her costume. She promptly called me asking me to bring her costume to school, since she'd JUST learned she could have worn it. I did take it to her and was so glad I did because when I got there, the ENTIRE school was in an assembly where all the teachers and faculty were dressed up and doing various skits. It was a reall "scream" (pardon the punn). She quickly changed into her costume and went back to the fun. Later that night, we took pizzas to our friends, the Jacob family, and rode on a hayride around our soon-to-be new neighborhood. We had a great time and look forward to many more trick-or-treat nights out there.
