i give up

Okay, I officially give up.  No matter what I do the stupid header is BLURRY!!! It's fine and crisp on my computer then as soon as I add it to blogger it makes it blurry!  Two hours messing with it and I am DONE, someone else can take over and redo it, no offense taken!
GRRRRRRrrrrrrr.................

VOTE!!!

I finally have some time to do something about these pictures Melinda took of all of us during Samuel and Aubrey's wedding last month. I need to make an 8 x 10 of one of these for my wall. Please give me your input on which one is the best. (I will be making a 5 x 7 of one of the silly ones too, so give me your opinions on that too, please!! If any of your are interested in having one of these for yourselves, let me or Melinda know which one you like (or all of them if you want) and we will e-mail you a copy so you can get it printed yourself!!











Fun times!!! I love you all so much!! We have the Most Awesome family EVER!!!

Finally.......pictures of the addition

For those of you who have not seen the house lately............here are a few pictures to give you an idea of what it looks like..........Dad and Stephen worked all night--until 5:30 the morning of Samuel and Aubrey's open house...........talk about cutting it close!! But it looks great and I have to tell you, I am so PROUD of my husband!! He can do anything! Sometimes it gets done in unconventional ways, but it always turns out to be great! No one could see the pictures of the addition that he had in his head but him.......as for me, I like what he was seeing!!

This is posted over the door of the "hole". Need I say more?




The piano is now in the corner where we always put the Christmas tree.....added a new lamp, a couple of new wall hangings, and there you go!



Hey look!! We have a ceiling fan!! We are sooo COOL!!



View of the living room looking in from the addition.........the same, I know, but hopefully some day soon we will get new furniture and carpeting and things will be very different!!



View of the addition looking west.....thanks to Grandma Willis for all her hard work on the window seat cushions. They are totally AWESOME!!!! (I love my Mom!!)



View of the addition looking to the east.........the carpet is temporary......it will all be the same, "brand-new", some day!!



View from Stephen's room..............



Our new front door and pictures of the fam...........lovin' it!!



The entrance to our home..........with Christ observing our comings and goings.........it turned out so nice!!



And a view from Scott's bedroom door.

There you go! Thanks for having the open house here Samuel. Otherwise this room would have NEVER gotten done!! OK...........so our next big projects is..................
