Update on Remodel

Sid and I have a bet that the bathroom probably won't be completed before the month is over. We made the bet the first part of the month. It is looking like it might not occur. However this week proved more promising. The window was installed so he could finish with the tile installation and sheet rocking. Then he had to grout the floor and the tub. The vanity arrived on Friday and the toilet. However the there a lot of little things left to do and that is what worries me. Sid tried to do the painting, but we had to hire Diane Jackson to come and clean it up. All and all it looks really great.

A Visit to the DeMilles

Cute Adam
Grandpa and the boys getting ready for church.

It's hard to get them to sit still long enough for a picture. This is as good as it gets.

Bathroom Remodeling

These photos are backwards. This is the new tub installed.
This is the demolition of the old tub.

Bathroom completed gutted out.

It's hard to believe that we are doing some home maintenance. The girls convinced Sid that we needed to fix the bathroom. Wade Parker is doing the work and it has been a slow process. He completely gutted the room down to the studs. You can see how the process is going.

Friends

Old People Playing the Wii-Rock Band.

Here are the guys. You can imagine how much they didn't want to pose for this picture.

David, Sid, Clyde, Gary, Dennis and Lou.

Judy, Teri, Patsy, Eileen, Chris and Tauna are at Patsy Crapo's for January's dinner club. Nikki is missing because Kevin's sister passed away that day.

More Snowy Pictures

The snow finally stopped on Friday so the kids were able to go outside and play. However the temperature dropped to single digits so it was cold outside. Sid made a huge hill and Dusty and Cam made it into a snow cave. We thought that they might venture out there to sleep, but I think that it was too cold for them. They slid down the hill on Braxton's new sled and took turns riding the snowmachines. Holly brought her hot chocolate maker and I think that Jacob drank at least a gallon of hot chocolate.

Very Snowy Christmas Day

It snowed all day on Christmas..and of course the snow plows were not out in Fremont county. We were worried if the DeMilles would make it up here. Holly said that the roads were bad, but the worst part of the trip was the Salem Highway. The Buchanans were helping Sid move the snow so that Dusty would have a place to park his trailer and pickup. He got stuck as he pulled into the driveway. Adam and Nate met again for fun and battle.

Christmas Day Activities

Lily & Nate were performing with her High School Musical dancing. Sid was taking a nap. Lily was busy making a lot of cakes with her oven. Dave thought that she should keep it here. I thought that she needed it at home. Nate was happiest playing with his play dough.
