Kitchen Cupboards

Once upon a time, there was a kitchen.
And in this kitchen, some wire racks lived. They were sad racks, frequently cluttered and in disarray.
(with 30 kids in a house, the racks were quite busy)
But a rescue was coming.
Plans were drawn.


Wood was cut.

And then there was a great day off of school when Thing 1 and Thing 2 were constructed. Well, started anyway.



And after much hard work by the handsome man, the wire racks were allowed to retire to the laundry room and sturdy Thing 1 and strong Thing 2 stand proudly, with space available for all. (All the dishes, that is)

And the kitchen felt better. (Well, I did anyway.) ha.
They might get doors yet, in case you wondered.

And a few more snapshots of what's been happening here:
Mudslide! No more canyon road! yesssss. (just pleased stay closed until after October 9!)




Making bread...

and cupcakes. (There are about 20 up close and personal cupcake shots on the camera; the girls were a little picture happy) 

Here's one for proof. 

Moto rides...

And the adorable (now that they aren't barking in the house in the middle of the night) dogs who dig holes under the fence and rip the laundry off the line and destroy my attempts at potted plants.

We officially are under a month til takeoff.
And we are excited about that!
Please keep us in your prayers as we say goodbye here and transition back to life at home.
