Day # .....

I know I know - your waiting for an update and I had all intention of giving you one. I just crawled into bed with my laptop only to discover I never downloaded the recent pics off my camera. I just sent myself an email to remind me to do it in the morning. So hopefully I will get them up tomorrow. It's gonna be a crazy week with lots of progress expected!

We interrupt the chaos for some fun!

I took the kids to the farm:



Anthony can't believe the goat took the ice cream cone from his hand:



he is contemplating doing it again:



OK he tries one more time



MOM! He took it again!!!!



We visited the bird aviary









Scooby Doo was there!

DAY 15

Today we got a floor!!!







the porch got a floor - well not THE floor just the concrete:



Someone came running out of the house bypassing the ramp that was set up over the WET cement and landed right in it:



the guilty feet:



the culprit!



This KID!!!

DAY 14

So today this little man showed up driving this....



please notice the belt holding the freaking thing together:



he was delivering the slate for the porch and gazebo:



just lots still going on:

Day 12 and 13

We are moving along here...

Master suite in process:



close-up of process:



a view from the side:



our new view (oh that's our window):



Steve standing where the new shower will be:



getting there:



I see a gazebo:



and a porch:



I see it - do you?!?!:



something is happening here:



Ohhh it's so pretty!!!



a little sunbathing:



now that's a pretty roof:



We didn't want the back of the house to feel left out without a porch so we gave it a little covered....something



and in the midst of all this - one of the puppies got sick and requires this daily:



Easter came and I made a cake:



The cousins got together and had an egg hunt:



Anthony had a blast:



so did Sophia:



this makes me happy!



Oh and meet Luke! YES I know I'm/we're crazy but that's what makes life interesting
