After 27+ years of kids in our house we find ourselves home alone!
During those busy years we couldn't imagine this time ever coming ...
but to be honest we are thoroughly enjoying it!
We love and miss all our kids, mind you, but it's time!

Time to have quiet...time to get things in order...time to fix things up...
time to have time together :)

So since August we've had a new roof put on ... with a lifetime warrenty!
Had ceiling repaired that the old leaky roof ruined...
Painted ceilings, walls and cleaned out all the kitchen cupboards
to make room for the new dishes Tim gave me for my birthday!
Cleaned and re-decorated Beka's room...
Now we are in the process of painting the outside of the house - ourselves!
It's actually fun ... covering the peach & teal with beautiful shades of brown!
We reward ourselves by enjoying many special evenings
with yummy simple meals like this!

Almost feels like a second honeymoon ...
32+ years later and a bit more tired :)
More pics of all our labors.

So cool mom. Things look beautiful! It's so encouraging to know a time like that can come after craziness :) love you!!
Ray you're so sweet to comment! And yes life does change :) Love you all!
When I was reading this, I couldn't help but think - "That's so similar to my first two years of marriage!" So I laughed when you made the comment about it being your second honeymoon.
It's so cool that God gives us so many different seasons in our lives!!!
