Merry Christmas 2025

                           Merry Christmas 2025

 

We have enjoyed a different yet interesting year.

We mainly enjoyed working on our new house construction –

• March 31, we received a building permit for our new house up on Jeremy and Jacie’s farm.
• April 10^th, we broke ground at 1356 NE Flicker Hill Lane, Poulsbo.
• May 15, we passed our house footing inspection
• May 28^th, we passed the stem wall inspection.
• June 10, we had the concrete foundation walls sealed.
• June 25^th, we passed the house under floor inspection.
• August 5^th, the trusses arrived and were installed with the help of a tall crane, with a spare crane standing by.
• September 25, Milgard kindly replaced a defective from factory window, which completes all the window installation.
• October 25^th, the rain gutters were installed after the roofing was done.
• October 31^st, two garage doors were installed.
• November 11^th, an electrician wired up power for our completed septic system.
• December 1, we passed a plumbing inspection.
• December 17^th, we ordered our Kitchen and bathroom cupboards.
• Presently the heating ductwork is almost done. Also, the electrical work is in progress.

So we have been rather busy this year with house building. The building accomplishments are fun.

 

In the last part of September, Linda entered the hospital for weakness and treatment for an unusual liver abscess. She was at the hospital for 3 weeks and then was treated at home for several more weeks. She is thankfully doing so much better now. The doctors worked hard analyzing her problem and planning her treatments. We are so grateful for her progress.

 

Jim had successful eye cataract surgeries this year. Jim also turned 80.

 

Merry Christmas, one and all. We have so much to be thankful for! However, we are concerned for our country, as so many Americans try to get by without God, the Creator and Sustainer of life itself.  Our desire is that people will realize the world and universe, along with the creation of man, are totally impossible without a Creator God. The Bible clearly describes Jesus, the Son of God, being born in a lowly manger, who lived a sinless life, and who died so all who believe can have a personal relationship with Him. God’s Book teaches about how God wishes us to live, the best life, even here on the planet Earth.
