Progress on the Home Front


Hey everyone.  Apparently a trained monkey could edit one of these Blog things.  So I guess it shouldn't be terribly difficult for me to put a few lines together. Yea, that's right this is the male half of the team and I post items to this blog only once in a blue moon... or is that a lunar eclipse... anyway, not very often.

So here are some pictures of our house.  It is finally starting to take shape.  Sadly the roof is not fully trussed so you can't even see what the entire roof's shape will fully look like in these pictures.  But hopefully there is enough to give you the general idea.  There is always more later.

Hopefully things will take better shape in the future... so you can see what it will look like.  So far Mer is happy with the progress.  We still have a long way to go.

Fun Times With Family

Happy 2nd Birthday to our little boy! I think he was most excited about blowing out the candles on his cake. You know how boys like fire. During the day we took him to the Playroom. He said it was, "Really fun."

Alex's Grandma Trink came all the way from Utah to visit. We had a great time. She even came with us to Lake Anna on Labor Day weekend.

Ethnie is at the helm of Grandpa's fishing boat.

We all enjoyed a good swim. The little kids also enjoyed jumping into the lake.

Smores anyone?

Grandma Trink took Alex on the Choo Choo Train at Short Pump. He really did not want to get off. Mommy just watched because she didn't feel like going into labor yet. Give her a few more months.

We have some walls


Wahoo! We have walls in the lower level of our house.

These are the windows of our family room.


This is our garage.
