Solar panels are up!

We were blessed with great weather and great friends who helped us get the solar panels installed on the roof. It is exciting to say that the solar project is quickly coming to an end. Nick is finishing up the wiring and getting everything ready for the BIG upcoming inspection. :)

Halloween 2011

This year for Halloween we decided to be the famous Peter Pan and Wendy! We planned ahead and were able to find our costumes at a very reasonable price! We attended 2 parties this year, both were a lot of fun and we had a great time. At one of the parties, we were able to carve pumpkins! It was my first time carving a pumpkin and I think I would like to do it again next year. Now, we have some carved pumpkins to display in front of our home for all the trick-or-treaters to see! :)

Solar with the chance of cotton?

We are busy at work on the solar project as it is crunch time because our deadline is quickly approaching. We have successfully put up the racks where our panels will soon attach to and Nick rewired our entire home to make the transition to solar. During one of our many solar working days, I noticed that we have cotton growing. Nick found it hilarious because he had planted cotton as a joke and it actually grew! :)

Picture Perfect!

While attending a wedding, Nick and I were photographed dancing. I thought this was a very lovely picture and had to share. :)

Welcome to Miami

Everything is lining up nicely for the solar project and we are getting closer to installing our system. Nick and I got the chance to take a Miami trip to pick up some solar equipment for our solar project. Our trip went smoothly and we were very blessed to be able to borrow a work truck from the Farm. While we were at one of our solar destinations, we got to see a solar oven at work( see the first picture ). They showed us the oven which was cooking bacon. Lol. :)

Fall Owls

This year we were excited to start decorating for fall. We spent an afternoon replacing our green summer things with our fall color decors. Our fall collection was small from last year so while looking for some new fall deals to add to our collection ,we found these adorable 2 owls and knew we had to bring them home with us. They are a good reminder to us of our special visitor we had a couple years back. :)
