The roof is done!

It is finally done. And just in time. Within an hour after Chris and his crew left, the snow started falling upon our new roof. Over the last couple of days, they have been removing the old roof and replacing it with a new one. Since they didn't want to leave the roof partially done with the bad weather, they would clear a section and then put the new roof on. It was quite an operation to watch. Finally we have some work completed from the Schaumburg HUD grant loan. It has been a long haul with lots of pitfalls to get to this point. Now we need to get the windows and water heater replaced and then the HUD work is completed. After that, onto the upstairs....

Meanwhile only 20 days until we leave for our vacation. Where are we going? If you know us, there is only one place we go... Walt Disney World. This will be our first vacation in over three years. Following the family tradition, Michah will have his first haircut at the Barber shop at the Magic Kingdom. They make such a big deal out of it and we did it for both Meghan and Mathew that we have to do this for Michah. I hope he has enough hair by then.
