New Plants







We found a lady who didn't want her rhododendrons anymore so Nate and I went and dug them up and planted them along one side of our house. It was a VERY muddy and wet process as it rained both days.
As you can see we have not picked a color for the house yet but are waiting for it to warm up and dry up a little before we can paint etc... Atleast the old vinyl siding is gone though!
We did re-do the wood floors and they are looking GREAT....I will put pictures up soon, just been very busy away in Seattle coaching volleyball and Nate and I went to Seaside this weekend.

My Green Card FINALLY!!!!!



Well Happy Days are finally here.

No more piles of paperwork and lawyers and interviews and fingerprinting and physicals! I guess they do like Canadians after all! ha ha

Man what a process but after it all and after our immigration interview last week, it is official, I am now a green card holding legal alien of the USA! (I love how I am called an Alien though!)

Taking it off....

The way the house used to look with its vinyl siding....

We have pulled off the front and one side of the siding so far...
Also that poor little Holly tree had to go as it was growing too close to our foundation :-(
It has nice old wood siding that we are going to repair and re-paint the whole house if we can decide on colors!! (definitely not baby blue or blood red though! ha ha)
