This is a view of our Christmas Day snow! It blowed, snowed, and drifted all day long. We couldn't have gone anywhere if we wanted too. Our street was even drifted in, and the only thing moving was big 4-wheel drive trucks and snowmobiles. I had to shovel a couple times as we had eye level drifts in front of the garage doors and the entry door. What a welcome to winter in our new digs. I have to say the house is very energy efficient. We can set the temp to 65 degrees and it is very warm inside. I'm about burning up and RJ, who's cold all the time, is freezing. I tell him to go put on more clothes! Well, there's only one more photo that I'll share with you all and that is the newly painted entry door. It's cranberry and I love it. I just need to go outside and take the picture. :-) I'll try to do it tomorrow or this week. After that, all I can say is pictures are good, but there's nothing like the real thing. I'm extending an invitation to come and visit. We have plenty of room and it's really cozy. So, come on over. We'd love to show you around!
The finished product - minus the landscaping!

Well, it's been a long time since I've posted and a lot has happened. The house was finished the week of November 17 and we moved in November 21! God blessed us with a great day - sunshine, not cold, and plenty of help. Over 30 of our friends showed up. They had all our stuff outside in the truck or yard probably within a hour and a half. Everything was moved in two loads. We started at 9:00 a.m. and by 2:00 p.m. everything was in the new house. We ate pizza and pop and then most of the people left. We, Jane & her family, and Gail and Gary, all crashed in the living room in the only chairs we had (the wings) and on the floor. We were bushed, but extremely happy. Over the course of the next few weeks, I got boxes unpacked (with Jane's help) and tried putting the house in order. Here's the upstairs interior view of our new home.
