parents are awesome

 I miss Emily.  she is so smart and just all round wonderful!  beautiful new daughter.

 my parents are so awesome. they drove up from SLC just to spend Thanksgiving weekend helping us work on the basement. 
 





 My mother brought the whole Thanksgiving meal. it was delicious.

 Grandpa conquered an ugly big old stump. thankyou!

 this is how to build walls. first 2x4s every 16 inches.


 always remember to measure twice, then cut once.


 i feel so much more civilized to have a ceiling.
 
 Grandma is an expert with mudding, perfatape, and sanding!






 
 Grandpa was the master carpenter.





 it was a Big project.  we have a bit more to go before it is finished.
 and now its Christmas.  We had dinner at church and sang songs. E was a little nervous, but sat for a photo with Santa.  He will tell you that Santa has gone back home to the North Pole.
