outside and inside

                           I still really love the steps Dean built.

 The garage is drywalled and plywooded and ready to be taped.

                         The siding was 99% finished today. I love the colour.

                   The soffit, facia and eaves troughing are all completed.

                We are putting stucco and stone on the front of the house. They came and put the wire on today. Hopefully they will be able to put the scratch coat on before winter. The final coat will be done next spring.

  Dean picked up the fridge from Winnipeg yesterday while I was getting my gums cut apart. LOL

Front door

OUR FRONT DOOR IS IN!

                                     we love the colour of our front door!
              thanks to Ang Loeppky we have the best colour ever!

dining room pictures for Tracy

Well, Tracy and the girls at work. Here are some pictures of our dining room. Tracy told me the other day that there were no pictures of that part of our house. So I promised I would take a few. There isn't really a whole lot of exciting things to see in that room yet other than the great view out the window.

the outhouse

These are the funniest horses. When I went out the other day I saw them on this hill playing.

                                                The hill is right beside the outhouse.

                                                              They are very inquisitive.

                            Whenever I go in there, They always stand outside and sniff around the door.

                                                            This time I was ready for them,

sanding and painting and stairs oh my

 The basement walls are finished painted. The colour we chose for the main walls is called Kangaroo.

                                                          
                                                    Dean's a stair builder! Who knew?

                                                             They look fabulous!
                                                 I am glad he had time to do it this afternoon.

The mud room and my Waxing room door.

afternoon.

 The veiw from the garage door. The drywall needs to be finished and will be done soon I think.

The steps are finished and now we can get visitors that are afraid of ladders.

 The sofit and facia is now done,

                    The front of the house is finally looking a little more finished. Other than the stucco, which will    have to wait till next spring. The siding is well on the way to be started.

Muding pro's came in and helped us finish the taping. They did a very good job. They even vacuumed the whole house when they were done.Very nice.

                                          The main floor is finished sanded. Tomorrow we will start priming.

Walt is starting on the t-bar ceiling in the basement.

The hot tub room is one coat of paint away from flooring. Which we have!! So very soon we will be soaking our sore muscles away. The colour on the walls is called ELK.

the flying dream

Colton's dream is to fly. He has been talking about it for many years. This week he spent career day at a flight school in Morden. He had an amazing time, hanging out with pilots, washing planes and helping around the place.

dress-up

We had a very fun time on Halloween. It is the one time of year people don't look at you like your nuts when you dress up.

The girls(other than Rebekah) are dressed in the outfits we brought back from Thailand, Vietnam and Japan. It was very fun.
