Photohunt: Pointed (rock and spade)


rockwork going up

Today’s photohunt theme is pointed. The pointed spade smoothes on the mortar for the pointed rocks. This section of wall is part of the outer front facade of our home. The rock work may be done by the end of the weekend - one step closer to moving in!

front entry of our house, ready for stone

The Lord gives and the Lord takes away, blessed be the name of the Lord. Job 1:21

We are grateful to God for the blessing of this home, for however long or short He chooses for us to make this our dwelling place.

    Sandy, Maria, thank you! We look forward to the end…

    Aiyah, Sarge, Mike, my husband does good work! He’s working alongside some hired workers and doing a beautiful job.

    Ellen, Storyteller, Joy, thank you all! There is definitely excitement in the air over here! It’s been about a three year process, and we look forward to the finish.

    Such a creative photo! Aren’t you SO excited about the new house? I’m new to the blogging world, and found your site through the Carnival of Family Life. Look forward to reading more of what you have to say. Please drop by for a visit sometime!

    Veggie Mom, nice to meet you! I did return the visit and left a quick comment (my beeping oven cut me short), looks like you’re off to a great start!

    Kiim, thanks. I have to ask, what book work are you referring to? There’s lots of book work going on… :-)

  13. Kathleen July 5th, 2008 at 6:46 pm

    I absolutely can’t wait to see pictures of you guys all settled into your house. It’s looking good!

  14. e-Mom July 5th, 2008 at 8:18 pm

    Good progress! Your house is awesome, and I’ve enjoyed watching it go up (in photos). Those rocks look HEAVY! :~D

  15. Lynn July 6th, 2008 at 7:13 am

    Great entry. It’s fun building a new house. Hope you are able to get in soon. Happy weekend and thanks for the visit!

  16. Jen July 6th, 2008 at 8:58 am

    Kathleen, thanks - I’ll post some photos of our move in. :-) You can “virtually” carry some of my boxes, okay?

    e-Mom, it’s great to have you back!! Looking forward to hearing about Hawaii. And, the stone - it’s really not that heavy - it’s faux stone. I’m glad you couldn’t tell!

    Lynn, thanks, Lynn.

    Awesome.

  18. Tipper July 6th, 2008 at 3:28 pm

    The rock is just going to be beautiful when its finished. I always thought it would be neat to live in a rock house.

  19. Patricia July 6th, 2008 at 5:23 pm

    Lovely post, Jen. It looks like your home is going to be beautiful - and the view as reflected in the window is fabulous!

    Thank you for your sweet comment on pointed at Pollywog Creek.

    Blessings!

    Thanks for visiting my pointed stump beasties. I love rocks too. I’m always picking one up to put in my pocket to haul home. - Margy
