I put some of these shots on Facebook but just have to blog about them. I would say that we had sort of stalled on the house project for awhile. Our builder was tied up with some other projects. We really are glad because Josh has been praying that the Lord would bless him with good opportunities. But we were waiting for help and Josh was stuck on a few things that he was wondering how to handle.
Brandon came along and really jump started us back into motion. You can see here how the living room is opening up nicely from what used to be a bedroom and a bathroom.
The former kitchen was just not workable for our family of 6 and all the hosting we do. So this wall had to come down to make way for a larger kitchen. Ultimately the former kitchen becomes my laundry room and the former living room becomes our kitchen and dining room.
Through out this process Josh has really been asking the Lord to give him wisdom. Even in the demolition phase! Sometimes it's come from good ol' Josh Patty know how, other times from how to videos on YouTube, as well as just God's goodness! One was this floor.
The floor isn't even all around the house. So Josh had been puzzeling over which floors to get rid of or should we lower or higher different rooms. Josh had really asked God to lead him in this decision. As it turns out the bathroom and hall floors were made of lower quality concrete so they took those out. When they did that they also found that they were not insulated. But the floors they'd left were! We are so grateful that the Lord really is our project manager in this!

It's so amazing to me how God show His power in such a "small" thing as getting new floors or something. He is a God that cares. I'm glad I can read about the whole process and also see it with my eyes. It makes me wanna go and dance for the Lord.
