This is in the washroom. Of course it is dirty/cluttered, but we are still moving around, so it's not completely finished!

(yep, we were folding clothes on the floor, and there are sill some construction stuff lying around! )

This is the bathroom.

This is the cubby hole where the toilet stuff/cleaners go. Oh, also where the clothes basket goes in between the washroom and bathroom.

 The stairway ..... Isn't it pretty!?!?!

Here is Gloria! She is now three and a half weeks old!!!!! Gloria is so sweet and spoiled...

The Star Spangled Banner Lyrics
By Francis Scott Key 1814



Oh, say can you see by the dawn's early light
What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming?
Whose broad stripes and bright stars thru the perilous fight,
O'er the ramparts we watched were so gallantly streaming?
And the rocket's red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there.
Oh, say does that star-spangled banner yet wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?

On the shore, dimly seen through the mists of the deep,
Where the foe's haughty host in dread silence reposes,
What is that which the breeze, o'er the towering steep,
As it fitfully blows, half conceals, half discloses?
Now it catches the gleam of the morning's first beam,
In full glory reflected now shines in the stream:
'Tis the star-spangled banner! Oh long may it wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!

And where is that band who so vauntingly swore
That the havoc of war and the battle's confusion,
A home and a country should leave us no more!
Their blood has washed out their foul footsteps' pollution.
No refuge could save the hireling and slave
From the terror of flight, or the gloom of the grave:
And the star-spangled banner in triumph doth wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!

Oh! thus be it ever, when freemen shall stand
Between their loved home and the war's desolation!
Blest with victory and peace, may the heav'n rescued land
Praise the Power that hath made and preserved us a nation.
Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just,
And this be our motto: "In God is our trust."
And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!

Prayers go to all the families whose friends and loved ones died in 9/11.

Here are some pictures of my room the past few weeks.... completed room pics are at the bottom.

Well, that's all the pictures I have for now! Although we moved another day bed into the room right at the door beside the bed with the green/white bed spread. Also, the floor in the hallway is done!!!!

Here is the border that we hope to put up some time later~

TTFN

..... ha-ha.

    Sorry I've taken so long!

      Alrighty, where should I begin?

Baby news:

    Mom is free to go in labor at any time~!!! I'm excited! She has dilated 1 cm already. If she doesn't have the baby by the 14th, they are going to induce her that Saturday. I'm excited~! I MIGHT tell you what our baby names are.... maybe!

Home addition news:

 Where do I start with this? ;-)

 We have moved the boys room over, the bathroom's done, and the school room is done, as you probably already know. We might try moving my room over soon!! I'm excited. I'm getting a bird (maybe a parakeet) for my birthday (which was in June) except we wanted to wait until we got to the new room so it wouldn't be so much trouble. Also, I have a 10 gallon fish tank I usually have running except all the fish died out so I decided not to add more fish until we get moved over. We don't want to tote a million pound fish tank over to the new side! LOL

School news:

I've started my first year of high school on August 4th.... So now I have a taste of what high school is all about.... Don't ask. It's alright. It's a wee bit harder but, I *think* I'll make it!!! LOL JK

Church:

  Last Sunday we had a Missions Sunday to sorta' renew our outlook on missions. It was really good! We three missionary couples there. It really helped me.

Miscellaneous News:

 Dalton and Joy~Anna had a birthday this past week! Dalton's was on Wednesday. He just turned eleven. Joyanna turned two on Friday the 22nd. Joyanna got a cute little tricycle and a big ball. She loves it!

   When my parents went to go pick up Joyanna's B-day present they saw some of our friends. We haven't seen them in about 3 years! Their mom was my old P.E. teacher in our home school group we used to go to. We first started going there when I was six. They have twin boys (who are about nine months older than me), an eleven year old, and a six year old. Me and the twins are pals so I was VERY mad when I found out that my mom and dad had saw them and I was not there. blah. Oh well, hopefully we'll see them soon.

Pictures, yaaaa~!
