God's Beauty

The last few days have been busy days, mostly running around doing little things here and there.  The holes were dug for the back porch posts this weekend, so yesterday the inspector came out to give the A-O.K. The posts for the porch were then put in place and braced up.  The brackets for the side porch have now been delivered and we decided how we were going to place those.  The gable up top has been built and sheathed, the termite treatment has arrived and arrangements are being made on how to apply it.  Jeffrey went to Franklin to get the quickcrete for the posts, and now it's on site.  The electrician came and went through the middle story with us yesterday afternoon while we tried to hash out where all the light switches and receptacles were going to go.  There's still a few small pieces of OSB to go up here and there and little framework jobs on the inside including the second set of stairs.

In the middle of all the chaos, a strong storm came up yesterday afternoon and made us step back, slow down and just pause for a few minutes.  What followed was nothing but pure beauty, and it reminds me just how thankful I really am for all the beautiful wonderful people in my life and of all the MANY blessings God has bestowed upon me and my family.  I just want to share that with you now.
