Snow's Not the Only Thing that's Coming Down

The last two days we've awakened to snow-covered trees. . .

I just keep reminding myself that all this moisture makes for beautiful wildflowers.


This morning, in the lumber store, one of the clerks asked, "How's the project coming along?" (She was referring to our work on the homestead.) I answered, "Well. . .it's almost like building a new home." 


We've accomplished a lot this past week. I patched the paneling in the bedroom and living room, and put a coat of primer on the bedroom walls. Already the room looks brighter. . .

Dennis pulled all the lathe off the kitchen walls and added some supports for the over-the-range microwave. . .

The electricians put new outlets in the kitchen and living/dining room. Tomorrow we should have an inspection and then Dennis will install the drywall. 


Today we worked on the bathroom demo. All this debris . . .

came from this. . .

That photo was taken from the mudroom, which will become a sunroom. We'll have access to the bathroom from the bedroom and the sunroom. Behind the ladder is the wall to the bedroom closet, which will become the shower.

Yesterday we celebrated the Lord's resurrection. During the service we sang a song called "Creation Calls". It's such a beautiful tribute to the Lord and amazing message, that I wanted to share it here. . .

Entering the tomb, they saw a young man sitting at the right, wearing a white robe; and they were amazed.

And he said to them, "Do not be amazed; you are looking for Jesus the Nazarene, who has been crucified He has risen; He is not here; behold, here is the place where they laid Him.

(Mark 16:5-6 NIV)
