Makinley's Thanksgiving Feast

This is Makinley and Meri-Lil, her best friend from school. She will live very close to our new house and the girls are very excited.

My sweet little angels having a Thanksgiving Feast together. Maddie got very lucky today she got to go to Macey's Pow Wow and to Makinley's Feast.

Pow Wow at Macey's School

As many of you already know last Monday our family was so lucky to receive one of the first cases of the flu this year. Macey was the lucky winner. She is the one who never gets sick so I was floored when the Dr. said it was the flu. She was very upset that she did not get to go to school and was even more upset that she was going to miss the Pow Wow they were supposed to have on Friday. However, she made a very quick recovery and we were able to attend the Pow Wow for about 3 hours on Friday. She even felt well enough that she stayed until about 1:00 p.m. and then I checked her out so she would not over do it.

They got to make Indian Crafts.
They got to touch and play with animal skins and bones.
Maddie was very excited that she got to attend. She thinks she is as big as Macey and Olivia.

House Updates

We are moving right along. I know we are making major progress right now and it will slow down in a couple of weeks. But I sure do like it when it moves fast. The house is actually farther along than the picture shows. All the decking is on the roof and the bonus room is framed up. They still have to put the dormers on the side of the bonus room and between the two front gables.

Weather permitting we will get shingles on Monday, our exterior doors will be ready on Tuesday, our windows should arrive one day this week and Barry's dad will start wiring on Monday. If things continue to go well we should be able to start painting and putting down floors the last week in December.

Maddie's Thanksgiving Feast

The girls always have Thanksgiving Feast at their school. The 2 yr old class wasn't sure what it was all about but they sure liked the food. Maddie had to take a ziplock home with her leftovers.

We now know that Maddie does not care for raisins.

Macey's PTO Thanksgiving Program

Macey's class and 5 other classes at the school preformed

Thanksgiving songs for all of the parents at the PTO meeting.

Macey and Olivia have become attached at the hip while they are at school.

More House Pictures

Barry is working faster than I can get pictures posted.


The ditch for the electrical wires and under the house are the

girls favorite partof the house at this point.

It is Going Up!

I have been very unpaitently waiting to be able to post these pictures. We have finally broke ground. Things are moving really fast but he assures me that it will slow down in a couple of weeks.
