The past few weeks :-)

Hi Everyone :-)

Things are going good here, reallllyyy busy but good. Its been an exciting month for us. Josh and I were able to get some time away and spend a weekend at a local resort. If you ever get the chance to visit it, you should. It was really very nice :-) Stonewall Resort ( http://www.stonewallresort.com/ ) is where we stayed and were able to spend some time Canoeing and paddleboating, hiking, biking and swimming. they had really delicious meals as well and golfing. Though I'm not much of a golfer so we didn't really do any of that.

My Mother in Law has been busy working on getting her older motor home cleaned out so I can start repairing and remodeling it for us to use as a 'bedroom' so that we can move up to the farm sooner. Their cabin is 900 square feet currently and we are planning to add on to it to give them an additional Library,Guest bedroom and bathroom in the future. Last weekend My Mother in Law and I worked hard to clean out a block storage building on the farm so that we can renovate it into an 'office' for Josh's work for when we move here to the farm. Luckily for us we can get high speed internet out here since both of us work with computers so that is a wonderful blessing! :-) The last few weeks have been really busy trying to sort through things to give away store and pack etc. for downsizing and moving out to the farm since there will not be alot of space right away.

Josh and I had a chance to stop up at my Dad's 'investment' house this weekend and the past few weekends to help him out a little on fixing it up for rental or re-sale. There are alot of tasks yet to be done,and hopefully we will be able to help him get all of that finished soon.

Alot of Josh's family has been in for the Labor Day weekend and we've really been enjoying all of them. We played badmitton yesterday getting into a huge 'tournament' it was really hysterical since none of us are really very good at it. It was soo funny everyone getting so excited if we actually hit the birdie! LOL! Even my Father came up for lunch and games and everyone had a great time. My nephew, Jason, had his guitar with him and was excited to show us all he had learned on the guitar in the last 6 months so that was really fun to hear him play. We ended up having alot of guitar players with us last night since Josh's friend, Jesse, Kim's husband, Michael and my Father all play guitar as well so they all passed it around and played for all of us and sang. It was really amazing to see all the different varieties of music that can be played from a single instrument. It was really wonderful. Since all the men were here my Mother in Law was able to get her upright piano moved into the cabin from storage and that was fun to have that in the house with everyone playing and dancing around. Joanna had such fun with all singing, dancing and games going on :-)

So far it has been a really great weekend, I hope you are having a great Labor Day weekend as Well! :-)

((hugs from all of us))
