Kitchen Is Almost Done
We’ve been working on the kitchen at the cabin recently. Our friend Ben came up and helped us set all the cabinets a couple weekends ago. We have been trying to decide on whether to add a couple more cabinets next to the refrigerator to make a small island, but I think we decided not to for now. It’s something that we could relatively easy once the final inspection is complete. Right now we are trying to focus all the things needed to pass the final inspection. The list is getting smaller, although we keep realizing there are additional things that have to be done prior to the inspection so it isn’t shrinking as fast as we’d like.
While Ben was out there, we also insulated the rest of the garage and then sheet rocked most of the walls. As you can imagine, we are getting very tired of working on the place. We are very ready to have it finished so that we can just go out there and enjoy it. It’s been over a year since we started so you can imagine why we are ready to be done.
Besides working on the cabin, we’ve also finished up all of our Christmas shopping and are ready for all of our family get togethers. Emma has been very interested in the calendar lately. To say she has been anticipating Christmas is an understatement. Her Christmas list pretty much looks like a promotional item for "High School Musical". I think she’s just starting to lose her infatuation with the movie, but she’s definitely hoping for some High School Musical themed presents. Since she isn’t a regular follower of our web site, I can tell you that she won’t be disappointed.
We are all planning on heading over to Mom’s this evening to spend Christmas eve together with Brian, Marcia, Aunt Jean and everyone else. It should be a great time. It will be fun to see all the kids excited about the evening.
Judy and Scott have created their own blog/web site. You can see it at: http://theearlefamily.spaces.live.com/
I have also linked it up under the "links" area of our web site on the left.
We hope you have a MERRY CHRISTMAS and a HAPPY NEW YEAR! (You too Dad. We love you and miss you dearly!)
