So, what have we done to our new project house so far? Well, the biggest thing has been to have the house jacked up and put a full basement under it. With the extremely wet summer we've had, that has been a challenge.
The basement was finally fully enclosed just Tuesday, just in time for the heavy rains that caused a lot of flooding in our county. It's so nice to feel like everything is nice and tight again... minus the windows that don't have decent screens but we still need to have open!
Upstairs all we've done is take out the disgusting old carpet and put down all new laminate flooring, and added ceiling lights to all the bedrooms since they didn't have any. We'll paint later, when other things aren't so pressing. On the main floor we're tearing out walls and changing doorways and adding a stairs to the basement, gutting and completely redoing both the kitchen and the bathroom, putting down new flooring, and will be repainting everything. It's going to be amazing when it's done, but meanwhile.., we have 10 people living out of a camper kitchen and shower. Fun stuff, and making lots of memories!
We are into our second week of school now. Jaron is in Fourth grade, Eliott in First, and Leanna is doing Kindergarten. Candice's specialty is keeping us all hopping with her busy little self into everything and then some. Tundra presented us with a surprise litter of 11 little fluffballs, so that has a way of helping keep us busy too...

But Mom, it's MUDDY!!!
