~ Officially in the " House that God Built" ~

We are now officially in " The House that God Built" !  When I first joined HSB it had a real neat smilie that had a baby dancing in a circle. (so for those who remember it. Picture it now that is the smilie that is here. ) I can't believe we are now living IN the house now. We will continue to progress. Now it will be with the small projects like putting in inside doors, closet doors, trim,and building memories, the second bathroom as money and time permits.  I hope when I can barrow or get a digital camera soon so I can give a picture tour of the " House that God Built".

 Today I am really looking forward to.  I am getting my show piece for the main living space. My kitchen counter.  It is the thing that ties all the colours together.

We are now done with the fruit tree pruning and we hope to have a bon fire soon.  Of course the boys want to roast marshmallows and hot dogs.

Happy Resurrection Day

God Bless My SS'sIC

I've been off the blog for a little while, but back now. Boy, what fun catching up on all of your moving expeditions. I know it was a bucketfull (dumptruck full) of emotions that you've been through--including time with your MIL. That would be enough to get me on my knees!! My MIL and I are exact opposites!!
Can't wait to see some pictures.

I hope you are able to settle in quickly and that the little jobs get done. Sometimes it is hard to do them when you live in the house.

Blessings,

I haven't been able to get to your site lately. Been having trouble with HSBlogger. But anyway here I am and catching up. That is wonderful that you are finally there. And the great thing about these faith building times is that in the next one you have more to look back on and remember that God was faithful before and will be again.

Handsome and I




First , I am a daughter of the King almighty and a a wife to my Handsome of 17 years. A mom of 4 on the go boys 15, 13, 10, and 8. I grew up in the states but married my Canadian sweetheart and moved up north. We live in the southern part of British Columbia , Canada on our homestead. We have homeschooled our four boys from birth and plan to go the distance till all four graduate from our homeschool. I teach with a Charlotte Mason style and use the Heart of Wisdom Approach. I love to craft! I am a beader, knitter, x-stitcher, quilter. We have been on a journey of being apart of building "The House that God Built". I have been recording our journey on my blog. Go to my links and you will find it. I know God has a lot more instore for us and we just need to follow where our Lord takes us.
