"Who hears these words of mine & puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock. The rain came down, the streams rose, & the winds blew & beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock. But everyone who hears these words of mine & does not put them into practice is like a foolish man who built his house on sand. The rain came down, the streams rose, & the winds blew & beat against that house, & it fell with a great crash."

Matthew 7:24-27

Kitchen Update



The window before we stripped it and the floor gone...

Erik working on stripping woodwork...


The cabinet Erik and my uncle built!

We have been making slow but steady progress on our kitchen.  We have the floor completely torn out now and all of the baseboards off.  We are in the process now of stripping all the woodwork.  I have watched my mom strip woodwork before but never done it myself.  Let me tell you....it's a lot of work; however, as I see the wood underneath , I think the end product will be very rewarding.  We also moved the refrigerator this past weekend so we could remove the floor underneath it.  We will tile our floor before moving it back.  Also, my wonderful uncle finished our cabinet that Erik started!  Erik did a great job starting the cabinet and it looks great finished too!  I am so thankful that my uncle is so talented in that area, it has helped us out so much!  I will add some recent photos of what our kitchen currently looks like.  It's a mess to live in but I am hoping we will be finishing it soon!
