ART

Art takes expression in many forms.

The bride and I have embarked on that deeply personal mode of expression known as custom home building. We have found it to be simultaneously exhilarating and nerve wracking. It creates an eager anticipation not unlike a child experiences on Christmas eve. However, it also fosters a fear of failure as our collective planning thoughts become a concrete and lumber edifice.

To date, our hopes and dreams for "artistic" success have been far exceeded. We have viewed the completion stage of framing and by week's end will have windows set, exterior doors hung, and HVAC infrastructure installed.

If all continues on its current path, we are confident in the achievement of eye appeal and substantial creature comforts.

Lord, we humbly pray for your continued blessing and guiding Hand in this life changing endeavor.
