Construction has begun....

Praise God that they are working on the house !! I'm so happy that we are finally moving forward on getting the house fixed. We aren't out of the red yet but we pray that everything goes smoothly and we don't hit any snags on getting our contractors paid by the mortgage company and the insurance will cooperate on the supplements. We are praying hard and asking for your prayers as well. When I got home yesterday there was a wall of plastic across the kitchen and living room. I made my way through the plastic and it was SO bright. Our sky light now looks like the retractable roof at Reliant Stadium. I'm guessing they will get that area fixed and then move on to the living room. I've taken quite a few pictures, but it could be a few days before I can download them since the house is out of commission. When I left for church last night the guys were still working on the house. I guess I didn't know what to expect when I got home because I walked in feeling confident about staying at home, and the plastic started billowing in the wind. It was a little eerie to walk in that area and look up and see the night sky. Kind of gave me the heebies. So, we went to mom's. On a more fun note, I'm very excited that tomorrow is Halloween. I'll be taking off early to go to Emma's class party and tomorrow night is our Fall Festival at the church. It's always such a great time and such a safe alternative to trick or treating on the streets. Saturday is my job's annual family picnic. Its at the Buckhorn Ranch and the kids love it. Sunday morning worship, Sunday evening bible study.......I have a busy weekend and will be snapping a lot of pictures, so be on the look out for our Halloween pictures. I can't wait to get Emma in her costume, and you will NOT want to miss James in his costume !!!
