We have progress!!! :)

Can you believe we are actually seeing signs of a house coming together? How exciting! I tell you what, we have been tested with these 100+ degree plus heat index days! Whew. That heat just zaps your energy and can make you sick!

Anyway, we had a few friends come out...THANKS GUYS!....and help one day, and that helped a lot. We have continued going with it. Everything is coming together, we are soooo excited!!

We also heard from the Electric company, and we are close to getting some electricity. I'm also pretty sure we are gonna get our well dug next week! Woo-hoo!

Thanks for your prayers. We definately appreciate it.

Brittany turned 17 !!!

Can you believe it? Brittany is 17! WOW! Isn't she beautiful? She is such a blessing. She had a great Birthday, she said. She was able to go to Springfield with some friends, and her friends from church got her a Birthday present and took her out to eat. It was really sweet.

I made her a book for her poems, using some of her senior pictures and her poems she has written over the years. You can check it out if you'd like...

She really loved it! It actually gave her a copyright for her poems too. Her Birthday was August 11th. She was born in 1990.

Love you BeeBee! Happy Birthday sweetie!

19th Wedding Anniversary

Well, Jerry and I are getting ready to celebrate our 19th wedding anniversary. He suprised me a few days ago with an early present. It was so sweet, I just had to share it with you...

He got me a diamond journey necklace and diamond earrings. They are really beautiful! He really suprised me this year! I was hoping for a bottle of perfume, and he got me that too! :) He's so sweet!

We have some more progress on the house, we are soooo excited. I haven't been able to take any pictures because I've been working so much, but I will soon and get them posted so you can see what we are doing, and how much God is blessing us! We had two helpers yesterday and all our outer walls for the first floor are UP!!! PRAISE THE LORD!! That is encouraging!!

Well, be blessed. I will post more later!
