A Few Days of Pics

We got snow!! This was Sunday afternoon. We ended up with 2-3"....enough to start to shovel.
The kids were being silly when I tried to get a pic of Kaleb's new clothes....that he just loves!!

We got a wood stove.....since this pic, Clif has painted it and really cleaned it up. We got it for a steal and it is sized just perfect for our size house (according to the internet). The guys come out on Friday to install it for us.

A friend of ours from our church volunteered his services to us to install the tile for the stove. This is not the best of pics, but it starts to give an idea of how it will look. He will come back tomorrow and finish the tile and grout. Then friday we will move the stove into place.
Later this evening, it came time to sit and watch tv. Well, it didn't turn on......uh oh. We tried a few things and still no power to anything on that wall. So we tried a few other outlets and still no power. Clif checked the breaker box and it was all ok. So we figure that we made the mistake. Before we could put up the tile on the wall, Clif had to disconnect a wall outlet. That wall outlet must be the main one...so if it doesn't work, the rest won't either. Oops. Chalk that one up to learning. So I think tomorrow, Clif will have to reconnect those wires to make another wall outlet and luckily Klara's room is on the other side of the wall....so we don't have to tear down all the tile. Well, now we know...and Klara will have another outlet in her room.
Currently, we have the power strip for the tv plugged into an extension cord and it's plugged into the wall on the other side of the house......very funny.
