Gobble Gobble....

Happy Turkey Day!

We had a great two day's in Traverse City! We spent time with my family eating multiple helpings of turkey, potatoes, cranberries and sweet potatoes over the course of the two days. I actually weighed my thanksgiving day meal and found that i ate 5lbs of food....wow! The day after we went Christmas tree hunting! Lots of snow made for a cold but exciting hunt. Mom picked out a tree much quicker than normal and we were back home friday evening for some work. Dad headed down too for some added help!

We put used leveling compound and filled any holes, dings, cracks, etc in the plywood friday night so we would have a nice smooth surface for the tile. Saturday morning we applied the glue and Jen came over to help tile. It turned out VERY sweet!



We finished all the final trim work in the kitchen and dining room and now we're ready for some finish (which I started monday night). Thanks for the curtains mom, they look great!

We also installed the final piece of our heating puzzle for this winter, a new duct in the kitchen floor to keep Jen's toes warm while she watches me cook!

OH...I almost forgot. Jen raked for the last time this year....It was a nice sunny day on saturday and she got all the piles made. We picked them up sunday morning JUST in time for the snow to start falling again!
