We had a wonderful, relaxing summer. That is, until about 2 or 3 weeks before school started up again. Since our county moved up the first day, Jon began on August 5th this year. Just before he went back Jon and the boys put in radiant barrier in the attic. It was a long, hot job. Hopefully it will reduce the electric bill. The jury is still out on that. Simultaneously the guys also screened in the lanai. It looks really nice. We look forward to opening up the house when the weather cools. Then, because of a persistent leak, we remodeled the girls bathroom in 6 days! We put in tile, new vanity, sink and mirror, along with a new storage unit. This was also the week the younger children went to VBS. When school began, Caleb returned to High Tech North to complete his degree in culinary. Zach began at the same school in the computer class. He loves it and seems to be excelling. He has had opportunity to show Christ's love to other students just in the first weeks of school. We are doing well at home too. Abigail also began school and is catching on so quickly. Stephen joins us for the drills we do in phonics and math. He is super smart and we enjoy his presence daily. The boys are playing football, and we are back to music lessons. Christiana is teaching all 4 of her younger sisters violin. She is a natural at it. Here are some pics of first days and the bathroom remodel.
