The wall between the living room and dining room has come down and the "meat" of the columns has gone up!

Saturday Joseph took the flooring out of the laundry room and replaced it to make it more level. It's amazing at what all he has learned to do. He's been working very hard and I am VERY thankful!

I was recently talking to my aunt about all the doors I was having to refinish when she told me about the inmates at a jail in Columbia that do it. So for $10-$15 a door they can totally refinish them!! I was so excited to hear that! I was spending twice that amount on the strippers and not to mention the hours of sanding! So, thanks to my Aunt Bev for saving me all that hard work! :-)

Deuce Ruff =)

Here is Deuce when we first got him in July

And here he is now at over 50lbs! He's so sweet but a pretty wild one at times.

We've tried to train him not to get on the couch but how can you turn this face down?! Santa may have to get Deuce his own little doggy couch for Christmas...

I find this on the couch every morning when I get up...he sleeps in the weirdest positions!
