Merry Christmas

Christmas in Fort Worth

We are in Fort Worth until Monday celebrating Christmas with Shawn's family. We are having a great time. Tonight we opened gifts with our niece Courtney. I love Christmas time and getting to spend time with family.

Windows and Sheetrock

The windows have been installed and this week they hung the sheet rock. I can't believe how quickly it is going. It really is starting to come together.

Roof

The house has been coming along very well. While we were in Colorado they shingled the roof. It looks great. Since then they have done all of the wiring and A/C work.

Happy Birthday Andrew and Adam

Happy birthday boys!!! You two have been such wonderful blessings to our family. We love you both so much and look forward to seeing what is in store for you this next year.

Colorado

Sorry it has been so long since I posted last. So much has been going on since we got back from Colorado. After the boys finished their hunt we stayed in Colorado for a few days to relax and hang out. Here are a couple of pictures from our trip. We found this very pretty state park while we were there. We will have to go back in the summer when it is warmer and take a walk around the lake.

Mule Deer Hunting

My dad took all of the boys mule deer hunting in Colorado this past weekend. Everyone got a great looking 10 point buck. Shawn had a great time and it was a memorable experience for him. He is very thankful for the trip and looks forward to going again.

Framing

This week they started to frame our house. They have gotten a lot done. All of the walls are up and they are now working on the roof. It is exciting to actually start to see what the house is going to look like.

Our New Project

Shawn and I are working on building a hexagonal picnic table for our new house.

So far we have purchased the material.

Measured and cut the pieces

And sanded some of the pieces.

When we are done, hopefully this is what it will look like.

Slab

Today they poured the slab at our house. It looks great.

I can't wait until they start framing and we can

really see what the house is going to look like.

I am really excited about the big back

porch overlooking the back yard.
