Winter is here...
we miss the fall...
and hardly remember summer!
Our kitchen remodeling project...that used to be a full wall, so the kitchen was so dark and not great. therefore we took out a chunk and half of the wall and eventually it will be a breakfast bar area with some shelves on the side. Now its just a mess.
AFTER WE PAINTED :) love it

Life is still busy. This past weekend was Remembrance Day, so we had a long weekend. On friday we had Dave and Ashleys wedding, which was beautiful and SO much fun. We danced the night away. Saturday I went over to Cindy's house with Katie and her daughter Ava and we made some Christmas cards. Then, in the night, we went to a Haiti fundraising dinner. On Sunday we went to First CRC again (we are really liking it!) and after just cleaned cleaned cleaned! 7 loads of laundry later and furniture moving =our house in tiptop shape. For dinner we went out to Dad and Debbies house. We had apple soup! Quite tasty! and a Roast with potatoes for main course and crepes for dessert. This week should go by without a problem.
