Thank you!

We have spent many hours at the new house this weekend getting it ready for the hardwood guys to come in. Rhett and I could not have done it alone! Our friends, Ian and Jana Elford and my co-worker and good friend, Susan Mate, joined us yesterday in pulling up carpet, staples and tack board. It was hard work, painstaking, and back-breaking…and those three really stuck it out with us! Rhett and I are so blessed to have such great friends. And we know that we are now at the top of their list of friends to help them move, paint, pack….etc. And I’m happy to be there! Also, our friend, Ryan Matchullis, of Brother’s Painting was there on Friday and all day Saturday painting ceilings and prepping trim. Ryan paints professionally so we’ve decided to have him come in and coordinate all the painting to take place. I’ve sort of felt at times that we’re being extravagant having a professional painter come in to help us on our first house. But I now know there is just no way we would’ve gotten it all done in a timely matter by ourselves. We’ve really been blessed to have such wonderful help on this new adventure. Rhett’s parents come into town today and will be staying at the new house so they can let in the floor guys tomorrow morning while Rhett and I are off to work. Again, what a blessing to have help and a big thank you to you all!!
