Happy Thanksgiving

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving at Scott and Karin's.  Here are the cousins working on craft projects before dinner.

Happy Halloween

Audrey was a fairy and Sophie was Daphne from Scooby Doo.  In the back ground is the skeleton that I made when Scott was about 4.  

St. Andrews Craft Fair

Saturday we had our first craft show at St. Andrews.  The space fee we collected went to the kitchen fund at church and also to ICS (Interfaith Community Services).  It was successful for a first show.

Rocky Point home build

We left for Rocky Point early on Thursday morning to build a house for a very poor but wonderful family.  We started out Thursday afternoon praying around the forms for the foundation of the home.  We poured the cement that afternoon and started the framing of the walls.  All this is done without power tools or  cement mixers.  Friday the house (11' by 22') was complete including the first coat of stucco.  Saturday it was completed and we had the dedication.  We also left them with lots of goodies, blankets, pots, food, etc.  We were all blessed as much as they were.

Lake Powell

 We spent last week on a houseboat with Scott, Karin, Audrey and Sophie and Karin's parents Steve and Randa.  We had a wonderful time, the only hitch was we had to drive Steve back on Thursday due to a kidney problem and he is still in the hospital.
