Laura is a busy girl!

Laura filmed the classes and concerts at the American Harp Conference this year. She learned a lot and met some important people.
Laura was the 3rd person to sign the poster that is now on display at the Lyon and Healy Harp store in Salt Lake.
This guy is Mr. Antonio Forero the President of Lyon and Healy harps. Laura should have asked for a free harp!
Laura got to play her dream harp. Problem is it cost $48,000. I hope her future husband can afford her hobbies.
Laura also got to assist in coordinating the volunteers for Stadium of Fire at BYU this year. It was a lot of hard work and some late nights but she loved it and had a great time.

Yea! Drywall!

Wow, our room actually looks like a room.....I love it!
Each evening when the drywallers were finished Daniel, the girls and I went through and cleaned up. It was soooooo much fun.
Heathers room, ready for some tape and texture.

just a little problem

When Daniel pressure tested the radiant heat system he realized that he had a leak so he had to chip out a section of the concrete slab and figure out where the leak was and then figure out how to fix it. It was quite a challenge, but of course he got it fixed and we are back in business.
I think it was about 3 a.m. when I took this. He was exhausted, but happy to have the puzzle solved.
Daniel hung the fabric that the insulation is blown into. And of course he needed a new tool to do it with. He had great fun with his pneumatic stapler.
The wall in the garage, all ready for the blown in stuff. It is supposed to be a great insulation system.

And now for the house......

Daniel, his Dad, Bill and Carson East oh so carefully unload our front door.
Isn't it gorgeous, I just love it! Unfortunately it had a big crack in it and other "problems," so we sent it back. They sent another one and we had to send it back too. So we chose a different door and hope we have better luck!
This is the door in the master bedroom that goes out onto a patio.

I had a lot of catching up to do.......

Kristy sold all eleven of the puppies. Just in time too, we were getting quite attached to them.
Our beautiful Kristina graduated from High School. Grandma Morrison, Grandma and Grandpa Nordstrom, and Aunt Sam came to cheer her on.
Her best friend Allie, they have been buds since they were 4 years old.
We are so very proud of her!

still more.......

Heather turned 16
She was a server in Club Cougar. Next year she will be the cool tenor saxophone dudette for the Club Cougar band.
She and her friends had a great time spray painting the walls of the house at her 16th birthday party.
And she was the best player on her softball team. That was the opinion of all the parents, not just mom and dad!

Still more catching up.....

Oh Tanner, I can't believe you did that to her!
Well ok, that is funny!
He he he, good job Kenzie!
