Happy Thanksgiving

Coy and I will be heading up to Fish Lake to spend Thanksgiving with Kenneth and Ashly and so I won't have time to write til after Thanksgiving is over and I just want to tell everyone Happy Thanksgiving. We are going to have all our family there and some of Ashly's so we should have a pretty big one. I am cooking a turkey for the dinner so we are headed up there early so I can do that. I am hoping the weather will not interfere too bad, I know it is supposed to be stormy but I am hoping for rain only. Have a good Thanksgiving and be safe.

Pies

Today I decided to make my pies for Thanksgiving. Kenneth was happy about it because he had the day off and was here so he got to have pie dough scraps plus a piece of pumkin pie. I started my pie making at 9:00 this morning and finished at 2:00 this afternoon. I ended up making 11 pies.
Tomorrow we are going to go and work on Val's bathroom again, I hope we get this project done soon.
I had a suprise on Monday Mindy came to visit. She said she missed us and needed some hugs. She stayed until this morning, it was fun to see her for a couple of days.
I hope everyone else had a good day.

Remodeling

Alright I will write another note. I am not very good at doing this blog thing. We have been busy this past week trying to get Val's house back in good shape since her basement got flooded by irrigation water on Oct 13th. We have pulled out the old wet carpet and the wet sheetrock and have put up new sheetrock this week. We have also been remodeling their bathroom so they could have a bathtub. The old shower was built out of some kind of iron or tin that was very heavy and put in very well with a cement floor and iron drain. We have pulled out the old shower, and cupboards that were there and Terry has been over for the last 2 days rebuilding the drain and putting in copper pipes along with a subfloor to put the new tub in. The length of the bathroom is 59 and3/4 long and the tub is 60 so it took a lot to get the tub in the room and after removing the old plaster on the walls it gave us barely enough room. Terry and I worked with lifting and inching and a bit of time and patience on Terry's part with having me as a helper we finally got it in. We still need to put the surround wall up but that is waiting until another day because we were wore out. I have been happy that Terry is able to help us non plumbers out.
I am glad Gary is home and hope things go well for him.
My heart also goes out to Rochelle and her family as they go through the rough time making their new baby well through all the surgeries she has to undergo.
We love you all

Today I had a humanitarian quilt day. I went to the church at 9:00 this morning and with the help of a few relief society sisters we got two quilts done.
Tonite is bowling league night so that is what I am doing later.
