As you all can see, the end of construction is in sight! Hallelujah!!! Our builder is working on staining and trim this week. The flooring people have all of the hardwood laid and are starting on tile. Next will be vinyl and carpet. We were able to finalize the order for our appliances today and will start working on ordering furniture next week.
Please pray with us that every part of this process will be honoring to the Lord and that this home will be used for His glory!!!
By His grace,
Chris for all the crew

Drywall and Porch Railings and Flooring...

Yes, 'tis true...our lovely new home really does look like a home now. Logs are stained. Windows and doors are in. The doors have handles that are locked.
Drywall will be finished this week. We have ordered flooring and the hardwood will be delivered next Tuesday in order to begin acclimating to the temperature of the house before it is laid starting on the 26th. Carpet, vinyl and tile have also been selected.
Cabinets have been ordered and should be delivered within the next few weeks. Countertops have also been selected.
It seems like things are moving along very quickly now and we are very excited.
But the most exciting thing is that we are preparing to celebrate the birth of Jesus and are enjoying these days of Advent.
"The Lord your God is with you; He is mighty to save. He will take great delight in you. He will quiet you with His love. He will rejoice over you with singing." Zephaniah 3:17
He is with us...Emmanuel!
