Happy Thanksgiving!


As hard as things are we really have a lot to be thankful for! My parents have wonderful friends, and mine aren't so bad either! People have been bringing things in everyday. Clothes, Food, Furniture, Money, and a helping hand.

Mom and I made Thanksgiving Dinner here at my house, and hauled it to Cascadia Church, so that we could share with all the people that came to help us that day. Surprisingly people showed up on and off all day to show there support.



It was a little odd to get dressed in your worst clothes for Thanksgiving, but after eating mom and I went down to the "Shack" to paint and Dad, Josh, and Michael went back up to the school.

I have been taking some pictures of the shack......
I hate to sound ungrateful because I am glad that they will have somewhere to live, but to look around it is so hard to take this in. My parents had accumulated so much, and to have thing change so much it is just SO hard.

This is the Kitchen and I am standing in the dining room to take the picture.

This is upstairs.


This is a Bedroom Upstairs


Other end of the Bedroom...Loving the Yellow.




I will take some more pictures soon and post. It is hard to make time to get to the computer. We leave here first thing in the morning and get back around 8 pm, eat at 9! Then try to get 7 people bathed before bed! It has been exhausting! Plus the kids have been napping at the oddest times so it is not uncommon for them to be up at 11pm still ready to have fun when the rest of up are DYING!

Mom is planning to move in in 1 week no matter what! Yesterday she and Hayden worked in the yard and V and I painted the inside, ceiling and trim. When Josh got off work we started laying some flooring that we had left over from our remodel.

I will try to blog again soon! Mom and I are taking today off! We are cleaning up here and letting the kids rest! Might even get out a bit of Christmas stuff! The Christmas Box starts soon so I have to get READY!

Thanks again to all that have helped us! We love you so much! Things are hard right now, but I know in time it will get easier! I Thank God every day for my wonderful family and Friends!
