Thank you for being patient!

Well we have been in our new home for 1-1/2 months and I am ashamed to admit I have not posted any photos! It was my intent to do it today. But it won't happen until next week. I was on the clean up brigade all day today because Kirsten has been throwing up! She either got exposed to some bug yesterday between school, her appt with the Dr. or our errands after school. I kind of think it was just taking her in and out of the car for a few errands and it was a little cold. On the other hand, she's not usually sick this long. She gets over it in a half a day, but this has gone on all day and not much change.

Dad and I were scheduled to talk in our new ward in Sacrament tomorrow, but it will only be me. (I'm farther ahead on my talk. He graciously volunteered to stay home with Kirsten, although he gives 'great talks!) Kirsten is in no shape to leave the house tomorrow.

David and Angela were here today. David helped dad shingle the roof of his shed and hang the door and a few other things. Dad and I propped up the walls on the floor this morning and dad finished nailing them together and put the roof on. The shed matches the house. It was actually a beautiful day today and sunny and about 62 degrees. Perfect weather to get a jump on putting up his shed. While the guys were outside, I was showing Angela some new crafts and we worked on a few things and I so much enjoyed her company!

We've had some nasty rain. You may have heard our area had flooding. We did not in the area we live, but farther out the Puyallup River flooded and took out 100 feet of the dike. We had an enormous abundance of rain over the past few days. We have flood insurance, a requisite of mine before we moved here.

We have an attorney now and are under way filing for legal guardianship to be our daughter Kirsten's Co-guardians. Imagine that! We are the parents but have to file for legal guardianship because Kirsten in handicapped! The process takes about 2 to 3months. So hopefully by February it's a done deal!

I promise to post pictures of both the inside and outside of the house next week. Thanks for being so patient! :o)
