Look at what Bill made!!!!

So we have been super busy lately which is why I haven't blogged. However, I just couldn't wait to share this. Bill is officially a licensed concrete contractor! The company name is Deanza Concrete Design. or DCD as we call it. It is just a side business. Anywho, I already shared the floor he did here. However, here is a picture of the counter topIMG_2690 sample he just made. The top and 4 of the possible edges. I love it!!! IMG_2694 IMG_2693 IMG_2691 IMG_2692 Anyone want to remodel their kitchen or bath????? And yes it is concrete!!!

Would you do it?

Toilets In response to April's post, who here would rescue your cell phone if it dropped in a public toilet? Let's say it was a freshly flushed toilet? Would you just leave it and walk away? Would you still use it after? Come on be honest......

So it begins

So when they came to reinstall the cabinets they hit a water main! I have been assured several times this is an extremely rare occurrence. That did not make me feel any better. But is is all repairedIMG_0977 again. So now I have my laundry room back. Here is what I will be doing for the next few days..... Wish this was all of it. It is most of it though.

God has a sence of humor

Ok so I have always said home improvement is not fun in an old home because it always opens up a bigger job. I never thought that would happen in a new home. Bill started his first project. Ok I have not kept you updated in this area I know. But long story short, Bill has passed his contractors test and is learning decorative concrete on the side. Back to the story. Here is the project so farIMG_0970

While doing this project we discovered a leak in the wall. After superintendents and mold people came out today they found that when installed the cabinets the put three holes in out drain pipe.They have been leaking for the last 2 years we have lived here. So for the next few days we live like something out of E.T. like this
IMG_0976 So now this will most likely have to be ripped out and redone. Oh well he could use the practice right????

A sad day... please pray

ChrisLaurie A friend from my early Christian/ college years of my life died today. For most he is know as Chris, "Greg Laurie's son". However, I knew him as Topher. He was killed in a car accident today. We lost track of each other until a few weeks ago we reconnected on Facebook. He was a funny, talented, and great guy. He has a young wife, daughter who is turning two, and another little girl on the way. Things like this are hard to understand. Please pray for their family. I can't imagine raising the kids without Bill. Let alone prepare to deliver a new baby who will never meet their daddy. Also, Greg is due to speak at the upcoming Harvest Crusades. I know that all things work together for Gods glory. However, things like this seem so ........... I don't even have a word for it.
