Karen and her mom Gerri in TN Sep 22, 2008

Darrell and I drove down to TN on Friday the 19th of September 2008. On Saturday morning we began a few fun projects of fall cleaning upkeep on my mom's home. Darrell power washed the roof, bleached the roof, installed new gutter guards, power washed the house and driveway. Then I decided that she needed new outside lights and a new shutter color (from green to brown). The new shutter color really makes the new lighting pop. We had a great time watching my moms joy as her home's new look came about. We also had the pleasure of attending a dinner party that her new friends held Sautrday evening. What a fun night it was and they are indeed nice people that bring my mother laughter and fun into her life.


General Conference

October 4 & 5, 2008 is General Conference weekend. We so look forward to twice a year (April and October) being able to sit in the comfort of our home and learn from our church leaders. It has become a family tradition that has enhanced our lives for many years now. We sit at the feet of our prophet and apostles and learn the direction that our family needs to follow for the next six months. It is such a blessing to know beyond a shadow of a doubt that there indeed is a living prophet on the face of the earth to help guide and direct us as we navigate our way through earth life.

I also posted a picture a before and after of our master bedroom. There are other pictures that I cannot locate of what the bedroom looked like the first week we moved into the house back in Nov 2001. Now that is a remarkable change. When I locate the Nov 01 bedroom picture I will post that you can truly appreicate the change. My friend Lacey Williams encouraged me to show a picture or two of my deorating skills. I will update the blog as I have more time to search out the pictures of total makeovers in other houses that I have done.
