Thursday, Day 4...Brian was up on the roof all day tearing off...around 4 ish the help arrived!! Yeah!! Thanks to Fred Ellis, Pastor Steve, Brian Kushman, Kevin Standfest, Rich Street, Tony Parandi, Anthony Hargrave, Anna Huey and Eric!!! We all worked until 8:30...talk about using your night vision!!
Friday, Day 5...Bright and early the supplies arrived from Carter Lumber!! Let me just say Carter Lumber is the place to go for all your home improvement needs!! Brian figured out an estimate for everything he needed to do the roof. He took all his "figures" to the home improvement stores to compare. He got the BEST service from Carter..they seem to go above and beyond to help us out. One of their sales reps came out and measured...actually spent over an hour at our house covering all the bases with Brian. He called back a couple hours later with an estimate for our supplies and it was only about $50 more than what Brian figured. The difference was their "delivery" charge. Pastor Steve and Brian Kushman showed up again to help for the day!! Yeah for great, servant hearts!!
Saturday, Day 6...Pastor Steve and Brian were up on the roof "before God was even awake"!! Kent Santee came later in the morning to help finish up the project!! Yipee...the roof is complete!!

Yay!!! I can STOP worrying about you getting wet and we can start PRAYING for rain for our yard now!!!! :-)
Yes...let the rains begin!! For a day or two anyway...we still have the front/back porches to finish...and well, the garage too!! But our house is safe and secure! ~Jaye~
Oh dear - - - you mean I STILL have to worry about those porches!?!
Woo hoo! The roof if done!
Well...the porches didn't LEAK!! But they will be finished to match the rest of the roof! Even the lightning rods are back in place!!
Keetha~it sprinkled today...did your grass get greener!! :)
Anna~How do you spell Eric's last name??? Jess and I were having a debate on it!!
It's raining again NOW!!!! Whooohooo!!! I don't know if our grass is any greener yet - - - - but it looks HAPPIER!!!
Doesn't it feel really good to know your roof is done, and now the rains can come with NO WORRIES!?!
Glad the chore is finished! A LOT O'WORK - did the Amish stop by? They could have it done in 10 minutes, I hear.....
Did Jess take the picture of the night roofing? I liked it - reminded me of a cross between Chim Chiminy (Mary Poppins) and Fiddler on the Roof! Hey! I love musicals......so what?
Love ya, Sis
