Field trip and recital

I went with Parker and his class to the Whitman Mission in Walla Walla on Thursday. You can read more about it here- http://www.nps.gov/whmi/

The kids participated in a piano recital at the Richland Gardens. Parker played a duet with Andrew. The kids did a great job.

The stucco is complete on the house. The bathroom counters are done and our shower is almost done.

Kids on post!

I have posted the house enough times on my posts.

Now I am posting the kids, okay. Cute pose by Jessica in the front of the house.

Jessica wishing the scaffolding could stay by her window.

Here is some of the house stuccoed
Samantha receiving the end of the year trophies in soccer. She would play soccer forever if she had a choice.

Moving along

The house is moving along each day. Here is the latest. Tile backsplash in the kitchen.

Girl's day

The boys went on a Father and son campout this weekend. Zachary kept thinking that he was going on a Cub scout trip.

The girls and I had a fun evening. We went out to eat at a wonderful Thai restaurant. We then went and had a pedicure, the girls had wanted on for a while. We went to Target and got some treats for a movie, we were not sure which one we would watch. After the Target trip, we went to the new house and took some pictures

The kitchen with countertops.

The master bath with counters

The rec room with a cute storage space door.
After a trip to the house, we went home and watched the movie, "Howl's Moving Castle" a fascinating Japanese animated movie, we all enjoyed it. We hope Andrew and the boys are enjoying themselves camping. We girls are enjoying our time together.

The kitchen-eating area
Where the stove and oven will be
The laundry room

The boys closet. We are getting excited, scared and nervous at the same time.

Stucco and spots


The house is moving along.


The stucco has begun, it takes a while to dry.


The tile is almost done, it needs to be grouted.

Yesterday, I ran over this bolt and washer. I probably freaked out more than was needed. While driving it sounded like driving with a studded snow tire with one stud. I was happy to get it fixed.

Samantha was not feeling well this week. She is feeling much better but she still has spots. She is allergic to something we do not know what.
