Workin hard

Here's an update on our house: It's coming along! There really isn't too much else going on in our lives right now (building a house can be pretty consuming). Rob works from sun up to sun down and I'm pretty sure Anisten has some teeth coming in (canine's - ouch!) because she has been super difficult lately. Either that, or she's seeing how far she can push me everyday. But, besides that, we're good.
Hope everyone had a fun summer. Personally, I'm sad it's over, but for the most part there are things I love about every season. Halloween, here we come!
These pictures are of the floor joists as Rob was getting them up. This is a view of the basement so the floor joists are at the very top.

That's Rob and Anisten sticking up through the floor.


So, we now have a floor and Rob has got some walls up! This is where it gets fun to see it really looking like a house.


Here is Anisten on one of those movable toy things at the mall. It kind of freaked her out when it started moving, but she loved it of course.

Just for fun, I wanted to put this pic up. My friend Chelsey got married a little over a week ago and this is me, Aleese and Chelsey at her wedding shower. It was so fun to see her get married. I am so happy for her.

The house is really coming along. Can't wait for it all to come together. Ani is a doll as usual - and as far as the difficulty goes, it's the beginning of the end :) There is more to come of that sassyness. Loved hanging out with ya - miss ya.

Congrats on getting started on the house! I wouldn't have as much patience as you seem to. But it looks awesome so far! We miss having you guys around over here. A lot of things are changing in the old neighborhood. They just split our ward again and we are now in a new ward called Zions Crossing. It's pretty small now. Wish you were here to add a few more people on Sundays! -Kate
