Men At Work

Since Matt has been using his drill so much around our new home as we get somewhat settled, he thought it was time to introduce Caden to some power tools. You can see by the second picture that Caden is quite enjoying the demonstration.

Speaking of our new home. . .we moved into this 107 year old home in Maplewood, Missouri on June 27th. It is a great home with lots of potential, it just needs some cosmetic work done to make it feel more like home. We hope to have the kitchen remodeled in September and Matt is going to try to refinish some of the wood floors during that time as well (I'll be visiting family in PA and MD during that time so it will be a good time for all the noisy and dusty work to take place). This home has a great fenced in back yard and I look forward to doing lots of gardening next spring, for now I'm trying to read up on perenial gardens and come up with somewhat of a plan of what I want to plant and where. Anyway, we are so grateful for the provision of this home and pray it will be a home of warmth, love, and retreat for many.
