Maid Elizabeth and Miss Serenity have spent their summer making the trip from their home to ours. They have helped us get settled. They have cleaned and painted and built right along side of us. And then they've made the trip back home.
As Miss Serenity's job came to a close, she began anticipating the next chapter in her life, whatever that might be. As she prayed and thought, her mind kept coming back to home - the home where we now lived. We talked about job prospects and house prospects and what she wanted to do with her life and things began to fall amazingly into place. Within the span of a week, Serenity had a new job lined up (for next spring), and had purchased a house!

Miss Serenity's house is not a typical house, it is a former Potlatch (timber company) scalers shack! It is 8 feet by 20 feet and is on a 5 ton military axle. It is sturdy and solid and is going to be oh, so cute when she is done fixing it up!
Serenity chose to "park" her house behind our new butcher shop. She has privacy, a yard and a year around creek running in front of her home. Not only is it a wonderful place for her to live, she will also work at the butcher shop in-between other jobs.

Our chicks are coming home to roost! We are so grateful that our children choose to be nearby and we thank God that He is providing a business not just for Sir Knight and I, but for our children as well!
And now we get to be a part of the House that Serenity built!!
