Hi there everyone. Back at it. We have been busy in September. First we ordered the sheetrock which you can see got delivered from Spenards Building Supply. They unloaded it with a the boom truck so Dad wouldn't have to carry up the stairs. Backbreaking. Then the hanging procedure went up. Many days and nights of long work. Our new friend Ralph was hired to do the taping and texturing. He also hung sheetrock as well. Laney Anderson helped Dad too. Now that is a friend! Ralph should be done with the texture this weekend and also Dad and Branden Goulet will hang the sheetrock on the ceiling of the garage stalls downstairs. Ralph will then firetape it. After all this then the cabinets can be installed upstairs. Whoops I did forget about the painting. I believe we have chosen a butter yellow for all the walls. So pretty. Dad works on this project almost every night until 8 pm. He works so hard. I am the assistant and help out where I can, insulating and sweeping. I have hung a few pieces of sheetrock but cannot really do the pieces on the ceiling.

Also I have been crafting my beautiful silverware creations for Christmas gifts. Try to act surprised. I have thoroughly enjoyed this. I found a new bead shop in Eagle River and have been buying all the heavy stainless steel shiny serving pieces I can find. I got this great idea from Rhonda. So I need to find out what color you each want for Christmas. Remember...act surprised. Here is a couple pictures of a tote full..not organized yet, plus a sample of spoons.

Good job Mom! Looks like you guys have been busy. The silverware looks great! Did you finish my windchime? I hope so! I putting in my bid for a set with light blue beads and brown. I think that'd look pretty for every day. AND then, I'd also like a set with Christmas and Thanksgiving colors. So maybe like reds, golds, greens. Christmasy, but not TOO Christmasy so I can use them at T-day too! Or, if I only have one bid than go with the latter of the two. Love you!
