Septic Workers for Hire

Experienced Septic line installers for hire. Reasonable rates. Only work as a team. Call 1-800-NEW-PIPE.











The crew has been working since Friday afternoon and as of Sunday night they have dug 450 feet of 24" X 24" trenches. Several more days of work and the use of a Bobcat should complete the job. The kids all caught on quickly to operating the track-hole although Jansen and Dayton did the majority of the trenching. The other crew members hauled wheel barrow after wheel barrow of rocks ( two dump truck loads) and placing pipes in the trenches. Thanks to Grandpa for his hard work and help too. It has been all hands on deck for this job.
Our new kitchen cabinets were delivered on Friday! The kitchen has taken a back seat to the very necessary septic system work. I am still hoping for the new kitchen to be at least functional by Thanksgiving.

Creative Pet Costumes




Our local Atwoods held its anual pet costume contest recently and the Deal family was very proud of their creative pet owners and cooperative pets.
Above: Landon, Cole and Orin showing Landon's goat, Geis. Geis is disguised as a Texas Longhorn.
Below: Olivia's dog, Gloria. She kept this get-up on for over an hour- sunglasses and all.

Landon is a TEENAGER!

I can't believe it but Landon turned 13 yesterday. Imagine my littlest boy a teenager. He posted his birthday wish list on the refrigerator weeks ago to ensure we could not overlook it or misplace it. He is still waiting for the go-cart.

No need to worry. Landon has not grown a beard. He made himself a felt one in honor of his 13th birthday! Very creative. He was thrilled with new camo insulated coveralls as well as a few new tools, and a pellet gun.

Janine's Travel Date!


The plane ticket is bought!! Janine will be back in Oklahoma on November 25! Praise the Lord for the quick visa process. Well, quick compared to how long it could have taken.
