Construction Update

I don't have much time but I feel bad when I don't keep everyone updated.  The house is almost done!  All the electrical and plumbing are finished.  We finally have running water!  Hooray!  We started the moving in process yesterday.  Only 2 Suburban loads by me, and a truck load by Adam and Mark (Thank Mark!) but it was still a start.  I am hoping to get lots more done today.  I feel like I need a giant shot of adrenaline to get it all done and make this final push.  (It would be SOOO nice if I could just wiggle my nose and wish it all from one house to other like on "I Dream of Jeannie"....sigh)  I will try to take some pictures before we head to Portland since I will have lots of time to sit and find something to do.  Then I can make a virtual tour for all of you.  Wouldn't that be cool??  Adam isn't complaining about how he feels but he will tell me when I ask that he's not feeling great.  Mostly he just tells me he has "brain pain".  I know surgery isn't going to feel great but I am guessing he'll feel so much relief after having that pressure removed, at least I hope so!  Our ward asked everyone to fast for him this Sunday so if anyone would like to join in, we could certainly use your faith and prayers.  Thank you to everyone who is STILL sacrificing so much time and energy to help us, especially my mother in law.  She has been so great at helping with the kids, helping us stay fed, and giving us a few minutes of normalcy.  Also, a huge thank you to the local businesses who have given us checks to help with expenses.  I cried so hard I lost a contact when I opened my mail the other day.  You are angels.  I can't believe the blessing of living in a small town.  The best people in the world live here.
