The Neighbors Pet Turkey Setting the Mood for Thanksgiving

 



    This fellow is strutting around in the yard.  When I look at him I think of that delicious bird on the table on Thanksgiving Day.  He'd better watch out.

We Just Finished a Roof Carrier



    This is our latest project that we did.  A roof carrier for on top of a Toyota.


The Wall is Now Plastered



    There are a few places to touch up on the wall and then it can be painted.  This is a project that needed to be done a long time ago.  We are so happy to have the wall back up once again.

Classes Begin in the Seminary




       This is a group of our 3rd year students during Greek class.



     I have the students go to the chalkboard often and have them participate in the classroom.  Much homework is required for the class also.


      These are 1st year students during English class.  They have expressed that they really enjoy the class.

Making Cabinets for Escotte's House


   The wedding day was approaching and we needed to get the kitchen cabinets done. 


   Several days after the wedding we were able to install the kitchen cabinets, finish the roof on the back of the house, and install a front entrance door.

Repairs Begin to the Front Wall to the Street
