Working on the house!


In June, Brett, my parents and I purchased a hud house, currently the one that we live in. Man was it a mess. Before we could move in we had to rip out the carpet and paint the rooms that we needed to re-carpet. We also took out the moldey water damaged basement, which was another 2 bedrooms and a bathroom, we also removed the carpet from the family room. All the bushes have been removed and so has the swamp cooler that is hanging off the front of the house.
We took out the many different types of tile that was in the upstairs shower and re-tiled it, it looks really nice and it is definatly great to shower at our own house, it only took a month.
We are currently in the process of getting the kitchen ready for paint, flooring and appliances. It will be nice to be able to cook in my own house again. The goal set by the city for us to finish is Sept. !st, which is when the appliances have to be off the driveway, or we get fined. Wish us LUCK!

Driving...without a licence



Max's favorite things to do is to help Brett drive the vehicles. It is a natural instinct for our 100% pure boy.
He even helped Brett drive the truck as they pulled up bushes from our yard. It was really funny because he had one hand on the gear shifter thing and the other hand on the steering wheel. Like he had been driving cars for years. He is such a smart kid, watches everyone and everything. So he can be the one to do it next time it needs to be done.
