Basement update


So did I mention that we are finishing our basement. We started framing the basement last spring and two weeks ago, the sheetrock was was hung. It is so exciting. Paul tried his had at electric work and mastered it (thanks to Bud for all of the help). All of the mudding and taping is finished up and we will start painting next week. I can not tell you how much I am dreading this stage. I painted the whole upstairs (with some help from Adam and Taylor) when we built this home, and I still have not forgotten how much work it was. So, I will keep you updated on the progress.

Don't you think it is about time!



Well we have finally jumped the gun and are building a swing set (WAY over due!) The kids are eagerly anticipating the finished product, but sadly, as all things go with us, it is taking us much longer than we anticipated. This is what it will look like when it is done, we are at about 50%. At this rate we might get finished before the summer is over. Just kidding, thank you Paul for working every evening on this. You are a great papa!
