Construction Zone.

After we closed on our home Ryan took a few days off work so we could get some stuff done on the house before we moved in. In those days Ryan scraped the popcorn celeines that were throughout the entire upstairs and retextured. We also worked on painting. We were able to get all the main areas upstairs painted before the big move. While this was going on, the plumber was busy replacing the broken water main outside. It was a busy week, but so fun to see things change.


Ryan's first time retexturing.

Upstairs living room after primer, but before paint.


In the kitchen and dining room I removed the tounge and groove pine and patched walls to get ready for paint



They had to replumb the downstairs because of the broken water main and the pipe they originally used.


Working on the water main.

Royden was a big helper and loved the big tools.

My busy Renton, I couldn't even get him to hold still long enough for a picture.

It was a busy week, and we are still busy trying to work on things, but we are loving it!

New Home



On September 13 after 4 years of looking, 2 years of waiting for this home, and 1 year of negotiations on it, we closed and got the keys for our new home here in Burns. It was a long process, but we know that our heavenly father watched over us a guided us through the process. We couldn't be happier about how it all worked out.






Ryan and all the kids amidst our moving boxes!

Finally Home Owners!

The home is a five bedroom and three bathroom. WE have more space then we have ever had and we are loving it. It is a bit of a fixer upper, but we have loved making it our own.


These are all the picture of the home before we did anything.

Fair Parade

The beginning of September we were able to participate in the Harney County Fair Parade. The younger boys rode on the Aspens Bus with daddy and the older kids walked with me and passed our candy. We all had a great time!
