It's a .....It's a..........It's a house!!!

Well, we went out to the homestead on Friday, the workers were just finishing for the day and wow!!! It's a house!

Nice view, lots of fill dirt to be hauled in to fill the front of the house and up to the garage.

The front will have a large porch after the fill dirt comes and dirt will go up level with the garage and up to the front door.

It looks big with Betsy standing in front of it like that.

This is the back, some of the windows haven't been framed in yet.

Me and Ellie's future favorite....TV, workouts, and play area. (and the obligatory storage space)

Ellie is giving us the tour.
Hayley and Ellie are missing Adam, he's out finishing a class in Utah.

Ellie liked picking up whatever she could find.

...and checking out the views.

The two red-heads like cooling off together in the sprinkler.

He's a fatty but he's cute and momma loves him.

Ellie likes a playmate too.

Fort Hood and Captain Crunch!


We had a fun day in the hot Texas sun, about 96 degrees that day, but a happy day for all. Lieutenant Garner became Captain Garner.

Max and Ezra were excited to show Gma and Gpa Garner all the cool Army stuff at the Ft. Hood outdoor museum.

This is just like Gpa's first helicopter in Germany.

Mom with her soon to be Captain.

Eph has a great family and enjoys Texas barbeque.

Max and Gpa had fun playing and looking at stuff.

There's Heather putting Captain's bars on Ephraim.

Max had fun just playing it cool.

The new Captain saluting his men with his 1st Cav Stetson on.

The boys took it all in stride.

We are proud parents and we were very honored to have been there. We are grateful to see the great lives that all our children are living.

They do make a handsome couple!

Ezra woke up finally and was trying to figure out what the big deal was.

The Garner's of Fort Hood, TX, June 2010.
