I'm almost overwhelmed with the amount of work ahead of us as we finish our last bits of packing and move everything we own into the house.
I'm also thankful. One of my brothers will be helping us move, and bringing a family friend. A sister and her husband are coming to help and feeding the crew lunch. A nephew will join us Saturday. A neighbor offered to help. My mother-in-law will watch the girls and feed us dinner while my father-in-law helps with the boxes.
Others would make it if they could.
We are blessed.
Welcome!
My name is Sue. Welcome to our home!
Our girls at their future new home
Farmhouse and family, 1899
The house before a 1929 remodel. The photo date is an estimate based on the apparent age of Dan, the little boy on the rocking horse. L to R: Dan (b. 1891) in the wagon with the team of horses, George (b. 1845), ?, ?, George (b. 1897), ?, John (b. 1888) and Annie (b. 1858).
Farmstead: Before
This is a satellite view of the farmstead from Google Earth. We can't wait to see what it looks like next time they update it. So much improvement has been made! You can't even see the house here, but that will soon change.
