Hello dear family!
Well, we are going into week three of construction and I am amazed at how fast they have accomplished the first phase. To date they have moved the back door twice (first time was not far enough) framed and walled in the closet and rest of kitchen, all electrical is in, the new window is fabulous....one solid window, no frame in the middle to break your view and the outside siding is now going back up and the wall board is being plastered and sanded which will take a week or so to finish then the painters come in to paint the kitchen. Then the old floor comes off and a new oak floor gets put on. Larry and I have stripped all the cupboards, now working on all the drawers then all the doors. Then we varnish, then put all light fixtures in, then garbage disposal and counter tops. Then we should be done...or very close to it! It looks lovely now even in this rough shape!! Larry and I have been doing fine in the camper. We cook and eat in there but have been sleeping in our own beds in the house. When they start sanding plaster we will remain in the camper to sleep till they are done. Its all going along just fine.
Es and I are looking forward to our Ludington trip with the kids in July. Going on a river rafting trip with all of them which should be fun for all. Along with our usual hiking the dunes and swimming in the great lake. The first week in July the Holmes family and the Beckman's are camping in Grand Haven on Lake Michigan for three days. I enjoyed that last year so we are doing it again this year. Then Logan and I are flying to Kentucky to visit Aunt Cindy and Uncle Ed for 4 days. He is excited to fly and use his new travel duffel from Aunt Linda. It will be fun for him and for me.
Weather has been HOT and no rain for a while. Nights are comfortable. We love spring, summer and fall!!! I have a different opinion of winter! :(
Well, I have gone on long enough here so I will bid everyone so long for now. Take good care and keep smiling. We have LOTS to be thankful for!
I love you every one,
Rose
