Hey there!

Hi! Not much has happened since the last entry. But I'll entertain you anyway.

The roof is still being worked on because the massive amount of days that it has been raining! They have 3/4 of the roof torn off, sheathed and tar papered. The nice thing is that they have covered all the spots that were actively leaking! No more drips on the attic door in our bedroom late at night and no tupperware to catch the drips in the closet room! Yay! The roofer dudes are really awesome, working with us on lots of items. They will be putting up new fascia and are even going to paint it for us. We are replacing some of the crown moulding that is missing and they had some helpful opinions there. So the new crown moulding is all primed and painted just waiting to be put up! We are also thinking about replacing the gingerbread shingles and some of the tin with new gingerbread shingles instead of using just regular shingles.

We are also looking into having the house repainted and by house I mean trim, ha. We had one person come out to give us a quote, he is a student at the university and had to talk to his other guy and never called us back, so I think we scared him away. Probably for the better! I am going to give Uncle Tom a call and see what he thinks about doing the job.

Friday Grandma Bonnie is flying in to Willard, she wanted to come and spend some more time with Makenna and thought around her birthday would be a great time to do it. She also had a voucher that she recieved the last time she flew because she took a bump so whoooo hoooo! She will be staying for about two weeks and will get to do all kinds of fun stuff! Like.....

The Sweetcorn festival is this weekend! Yay, yummy sweet corn lovelyness! We've gone for the past couple of years, they always have good food and great music.

This weekend we are also going to Indiana to have Makenna's "first" first birthday party at Grandpa Pat's! We should have fun! Earlier in the week we stopped by the party store and bought Makenna's second first birthday party decorations! We also stopped by the Cake Artist Studio to order her cake! Yay!

Well that's it....I will try to upload pictures later today!
