Yellow Walls

We are starting to feel more settled now. This is the living room. The walls are yellow and that will have to change. We will have to wait until we have everything unpacked before we start that project. We were pleasantly surprised at how well the piano stayed in tune. We are opened to suggestions as to what should go over the T.V. hole over the fireplace. We are not planning on having a T.V. in the living room. I will post more pictures soon, but I must go get some more boxes unpacked! Have a wonderful weekend!

We Have Moved!

We have moved and we have a new address. On Gahagan Rd. we have been busy with the usual moving chores. I tried to post yesterday, the blog site was updating for thirty min. and I had to get back to unpacking. I will post some pictures soon. I need to find my power cord for the computer. I am low on power.
The house that we ended up buying is not the same one pictured in previous posts. We had a chance to really check the area out and we wanted a bit more land than that house was sitting on . We wanted to stay in the Oakbrook ward though so that limited our choices. We feel very blessed to have been able to purchase this home on Gahagen Rd. It is on .09 of an acre and just minutes from everything. The house is only 3 1/2 yrs old. It is 3800+ sq. ft. We will have to do some work to it, the builder skimped alot on the finish details. Good thing Darren is so good at it and enjoys it too. He has already started one project. New doors for his office!

Charleston Home Show 2006

Today we dropped Nick off early for a stake youth activity. Darren and I went to a home show here in Charleston. It was a good day for it. The cold front has moved in and the warm air is gone. It is rather windy today and that makes surfing hard. There is a football game this afternoon so I will have time to work on some cards or scrapbook pages. The picture was taken last night after we watched animal planet and the dogs were still. Ben has a new Companion, Elder Johnson. That is not a typo, yes it is Elders Johnson & Johnson. He will be in Roseville another 6 weeks.

Zone Conference

This morning I went and helped with the lunch at the Missionary Zone Conference. We served soup in bread bowls. I was having an enjoyable time working with the Sisters from our Relief Sociaty. I had a very hard time when the Missionaries sang to us after they ate. They sang Called To Serve. I could not stop the tears, it was really embarrasing to say the least. Moms who have experienced this know what I am talking about, Moms who have not your turn will come. It is all worth it!! A trip to the house this afternoon showed more progress. The rails are in and the paint is suppose to done in the next day or so. I am looking forward to a painted house! Kirra is getting along well with our crazy schedules. Rusty likes her on his own terms.
