Hello to all. I has been far to long without an update on here but for good reason. About a week after we moved in Kelly accidentally cut the internet wire in a few places with putting an in ground fence in for our dog. It has only gotten fixed this pasted week. So I have a lot to update you all on. I'm not sure I remember every thing but I will try my best. We Started painting in our house on June 26th. We got possession at noon that day. Carissa and Janae both came and helped and without that help I would have never gotten done when I did. We painted one wall in the living room and all three bedrooms. Two of the bedroom had a wallpaper border that had to come off and lots of nail holes in the walls. I painted the living room wall a dark charcoal grey, Nigel's room is a light grey color, the girls are sharing a room and their's is a light mint green color with bright colored pom pom strings on the wall and our room had one black wall the the rest are white. There is more painting I plan on doing but not till winter now. Kelly and I finished painting at midnight or so and planned to move the next day. Vicky kindly offered to keep my children over night and the next day. So on the 27th of June we moved all day and unpacked and slept in our new house for the first time. The next several weeks where spent unpacking and to this day I still have some to done but I will work on it when school starts. I did paint the office/sewing room  about the middle of July so I could start school sewing for Heidi.  So we now spend our days outside a lot and most every afternoon in the pool/pond. Kelly's sister Heather and Isaac came for a week the first part of August and with them a bunch of Haitians from Montreal. On evening they all came for supper. I made pizza for 30 people. I worked really good. We spent every supper with Isaac's and one day they came over and Carissa, Vicky, and I put up 34 dozen cobs of corn. We did it outside on our garage. Kelly has been putting in long hours doing concrete so we don't see him much except on the week ends. Our school here is planning on starting September 8. I don't think we have to many "new" rules we have to follows as we are a pretty small school with small classes and bigger class room sizes. Heidi will go into grade 2 and Nigel will go to Kindergarten in the spring. We do have one new addition to our family and that is an 8 week old female American Bulldog that we have named Indy. I have forgotten what the puppy stage is like as we never when through it with Flash. I think we are making up for it now though. Well that's all I have time for now. Hope you all have a good day. Till next time......
