10 years ago today 12.12.02

We had to work very hard that Thursday afternoon December 12th 2002, it was pouring down rain while we tried to get our cable hooked up in time to watch Survivor that night.
It was a Thursday and NOTHING was going to keep us from watching Survivor the first night in our brand spanking new home.
10 years ago today.
 It's strange, but that's what comes to mind. Working in the mud with Dish Network digging a muddy trench to run some cable to our brand new home so we could watch Survivor.
We celebrate 10 years today in our humble abode. 10 Years ! That's a fairly long time.
It has been a blessing and a very stable household for the 5 (6) of us these last 10 years.


Laying sod a few weeks before moving in. Thanks Jerry and Larry



The large photo above on this blog is our home.
Move in day December 12, 2002 was all about the cable getting hooked up. A friend of mine and myself had loaded up the u-haul and we had the bulk of the move done by early afternoon.
We had broke ground to build our home in May, almost 8 months earlier. We were scheduled to be in by halloween, but delays and some weather kept that from happening.
A 10 year old home with the majority of those years devoted to raising 3 teens will take a toll on any home. Our home being no exception. A few holes in some walls, a stain or two on the carpets, a "honey do" list that never seems to  end. 


We did end up watching Survivor that night and today, we're right smack in the middle of living happily ever after.

It's a Great Life !
