Catching Up

Jami and I have not been very good at keeping up since she has been ill and I have been working more than 60 hours a week.  It has been a long couple of months though.  Her second blood patch was given at the T-9 region and she has been feeling a lot better.  She laid down for two days but she has been feeling much better.  Only after exercising has she felt much different.  There has been some pain and discomfort. She has still been working and doing her callings.  She has done really awesome considering the circumstances.  We were talking about what we have learned from this experiences.  I think that we have definitely learned how about service and put life in perspective on the important things such as the gospel.  

I have been working and a lot at my boss's trying to sand the wood that will be going into the house.  We took wood from a house built in the 1800's and some was painted so we are having it stripped and then I am sanding it.  There were several different kinds of wood like oak, cherry, pine and so on.  i have been able to help put on the trusses and I have cleaned out snow out of it.  I have helped move some of the heavy stuff and have prepared walls that will have TVs and clocks hanging on them. 

 We have really been enjoying the temple.  I have learned a lot from working there over the last few couple of years.  I have learned to have a different perspective and I have learned  many things about things that are symbolistic within the temple. Our callings are keeping us busy and we are doing better and are looking forward to spring and what it will bring.

 There have been some days were there has been frost on the trees and made them look pretty.

 This is a picture of the house as I was coming down the drive way.

 This was the truck with the boom that went over the house and into the basement to poor it.  The boom goes about 130 feet. 

 This was the basement after it was poured.

 This is a picture out the back but it needs rotated.  The decks will be added. 

 This is the view from the back.

 These windows are were custom made for the house and the trim that will be used, which is in the living room.

 This is a picture of the sunroom.

 This is the front of the house. The porch is to the left and a deck towards the right. 

 This is the garage.
