Can you believe it???

The painting is finished on my house!!!

It has been a busy 9 months in my life but I will put it into one quick blog and go on. Had some trouble remembering how to get on to new posts but I'm back with the program now. Loved my time in the states with family last time...returned to Sweden and kept busy with friends, church and my house...and loving my granddaughter Zoe and her great folks! Good news...Eimi is expecting again in about 10 days...I was able to get the outside of my house painted, garage door replaced and some yard work done. I also got my upstairs bathroom installed- love it!
Just had to steal this one from your blog Eimi!!!

Came back to the US mid Nov and planned to stay until mid January of this year...kids had a different plan...family reunion in March at Nathan's house so I will be gone about 4 months this time (so sorry my dear Relief Society presidency sisters...I WILL come back and help!!!) Since I have been here this time I have spent some time with Nate, Ashley and their two beautiful redhead daughters, some time with Bryan, Mandy and their 3...Bryce is only a few inches shorter than me at 10 years old, Ashlyn is 6.5 and is full of energy and Lily is 9 months and cute as a bug (once she got used to me and quit screaming every time I got near ;-). Drove with N&A and fam to Utah for Thanksgiving with Scott and family and I stayed on with them for a while. Flew to San Diego area to spend about 10 days with Aaron and got to enjoy his new house...it's beautiful and we got to get some things up on the walls, etc. By the way, he just came in second in a motorcycle race and won his first money as a motorcycle racer last weekend...Go Aaron!!!

Back to Utah for Christmas, then on to Bryan and Mandy's again Christmas night to help them out. Low and behold, they had been offered a job at BYU Hawaii and he had to move and be to work Feb. 1st! Have spent these last few weeks helping out with kids, etc. as they sorted...packed...had the movers come in,out and then they headed off for Hawaii.


Got the house ready for sale, had an open house yesterday and look to going down to N&A's again probably Tues. WOW! If anyone knows of someone looking for a wonderful dream house on a lake in WA, have we got one for you! Check it out: www.1337RoyRoad.com

Anyway, that's my life for the last 8 or 9 months in one blog...time to slow down a bit now and I'll write more often! Hopefully!!

Bonnie your house looks so amazing! That shower in the bathroom looks so wonderful. It is so fun to see all the things you are doing, I hope it isn't as long before you post again ;)
