Lots of dirt and mud

Framers are on the second floor amd have floor down.  Rain has delayed progress.  We needed the break!

Welcome to Abby, Logan and Slade

Great day to have my wonderful daughter come see us at Springland,  Think the guys liked exploring and checking out walk through  walls and Abby was on hand for conference with stairway builders and lots of encouragement for Mom.  Her A O K means alot!

Like Father Like Son

Ran across this picture of Chad today and couldn't help but compare it to Gaege.  Chad is 9 in these pics and Gaege is 8.  They are both pretty special guys and so much alike.  Having Gaege around is like having Chad Boy back as a boy.  God is good to us old grandmothers.  He gives a blast from the past every now and then.  

More vistors

Mom, Steve, Uncle, and Sprout came today for a trip to Springland and a fried chicken supper.  Long awaited visit with my advisor on life , politics and design.  Good time had by all ending with memories of trips to England and kitchen design tips.  Sprout and Allie liked each other, but didn't want the other to know.  Think Allie was jealous of Sprouts treats and car seat.

This Guy does it all

Moving right along with house.  Louis took a break from the hard stuff and decided to clean house.  What a man!

foundation to walls

First out of town guest.  Bob Cooper  stopped in on the way back to Atlanta.  He left in a hurry????

Lou calls this FUN

No stress for this man.  He is enjoying this to the utmost. Building is his passion.

A different View

From the land next door, it looks like this is a hellicopter pad.  Every day their is something new going on.

The Walls are next

More of the day at Springland

What a great trip and even better to see the goals being accomplished by those you love. I am so proud of you Chad!!! Thanks mom for flying with me again!!!Love you-Abby

The last of the picture's of our trip

Hope I have not bored everyone with so many pictures, but this is the first time and last time we will be Chad's Maryland home before they move. It was great to see them and all they are doing. Will end these long Blog pictures with glimpses of the Bay on a incredible beautiful day in Feb. 2008

The Anderton's

Chad and Lisa have worked hard restoring their home. Check out the bath. It's wonderful to see how talented your children are. They completed renovated the bath and laundry room. Great job!

Scenes from Home on the Bay

We had a lovely few hours visiting at Chad's. Archery, Bay walk and even Juju got to go in Gaege's secret club house. Tyler and Cloie and Angel are the Anderton pets and certainly well loved.

Reading Award
