Construction Update!
« on: September 30, 2010, 07:05:44 AM »
Well guys it is getting close.  We are moving this weekend!  There is still a lot to be done like cabinets, closets, painting, flooring, and a few other 'small' things, but we are all packed up and ready to go!  We realize it will be a bit of a struggle in the beginning, but this family has gotten used to living out of boxes.  ;)  I told Mrs. Greybeard yesterday that worse came to worse and we would pitch a tent in the living room and camp out for a couple of weeks, but luckily it won't come to that!  The house itself has turned out way better than I ever imagined.  I will get Matt or GB to post some new pics soon.

Congratulations! I know that feeling of building a house and moving in w/family. Though we sold our house quite a few months ago we have moved back onto 9 acres that we own. From your earlier post I can say that you are correctin saying that building a house will make your relationship stronger. Blessings for your family and new home.Patrick

Glad things are going well.

This old man is predicting the move will not happen this weekend. Just too much yet undone.

The only thing I can think of that would be close in stress  to building your house is building a boat( no, not a 12 foot Jon boat)

Matt said it was no biggie if we couldn't move in this weekend.  He said we could just bunk with you!  ;)

Ha, ha, ha, ha, GB that's what Grandparents are for aint it.  A week that turns into two, then three, oh well, think of the fun you can have with the kids.

What Is A Veteran?
A 'Veteran' -- whether active duty, discharged, retired, or reserve -- is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check made payable to 'The United States of America,' for an amount of 'up to, and including his life.' That is honor, and there are way too many people in this country today who no longer understand that fact.
