Update on Maddie and the airstream!

We got all of the tests back and it showed that my sweet Madeline has been fighting a long case of walking pneumonia. Obviously she didn't have the classic symptoms, like our doctor says "Sometimes diseases haven't read the text book so they don't act like they should." she has had medicine and she is feeling better And better everyday!!! I'm so grateful that in the end it wasn't something more serious! Thank you friends sooooo very much for all of the prayers! God heard and has protected my baby.

Today we are painting cabinet doors for the Mrs. Agnes (the airstream). I can't wait to see what they look like installed! We used chalkboard paint on the fridge, and we are going to install that tonight. This last bit of work has been fun because it's more of the cosmetic stuff. Pictures coming soon!!

I am so very glad that your Maddie is doing better! The power of prayer at work! Love that you are making the camper a true traveling home. You are going to be making the memories of a lifetime. I recently made a smocked dress using one of your patterns. You can see it at http://butterfliesandfaeries.blogspot.com/

The Handmade Dress Infomercial: Do you suffer from scrached DVD's?

Do your children cry when they can't watch their favorite movie because of irritating scratches? Are you sick of paying good money for movies that are scratched minutes after you take them from the case? Do you often wish that we could just go back to VHS because you could leave them out in the rain, bring them in and use them for a coaster, and then let the baby throw it for fun and it would STILL WORK!? ME TOO ! . We have struggled for years with scratched movies that were no longer watchable, but not anymore! We have finally found the secret formula to rid you of this nasty little problem forever! . Crest Kids Toothpaste! YES, that's what I said! Kids toothpaste! . A few months back I heard some place that toothpaste would take of scratches and I tried it and it didn't work, then the other day out of pure desperation I tried it my way. IT WORKED! So I decided this kind of news could not be kept secret, I have to tell the world! So I

New triple bunks.

Ben designed new bunk beds for the "girl's dorm" and "boy's dorm" in our house. We LOVE them!! We are almost done with all of the work, just a few loose ends left to tie up, but I couldn't wait to show off his handy-work. This is the girl set. We stained them with colored stain and we really like how that turned out. It's almost the color of cranberries. I still need to paint the boards that are attached to the wall. I'm going to paint them the color of the wall so that it looks like the beds are floating. :)  This is the boy set while still under construction. We ordered new bunk mattresses, but they haven't come in yet. I will show you guys pictures when they are completely finished. We stained these green, it looks like the color of bamboo. The kids LOVE these beds! And oh the space we have now! I'll be back soon with finished pictures! xo, Sam If any of you make beds using these plans could you send us a picture? We
