Steel Framing Completed - Windows In

It has been a few weeks since we posted the progress of the new childcare building. The exterior supports of the building are complete, including the roof supports. Although there are no walls or roof, the windows are all in. It looks so strange. Notice the blue trim around this picture. It took them all week to do that last week. There are only a couple of guys working right now because most of MidValley's employees are trying to finish up the elementary school which is two months delayed. That means that we too will be delayed.

This shows the finished steel supports and roof supports. This is the east end of the building which will be where the main door is. However, we have put in a change order to increase the size of the front door to allow large furnishings to be brought in.

My Ride Back to Provo!

Dad came and picked myself and two other girls up for Thanksgiving (Thanks, Dad!), so one of their dad's got us back...on his plane!

We got to wear the headphones to protect us from the noise and so we could talk to eachother. I could also hear the airport tower people! He has a really high-tech plane and showed us on all of the screens what he was doing and what everything meant.



The first thing I thought when I saw it was...That is a TINY plane! Four seats including the pilot, but since it flies closer to the ground, I could see a lot more.

It was so much fun, he did zero gravity a few times and had us hold our cell phones out on our palms, pretty soon they were floating at the top of the plane! IT WAS GREAT!


Once we landed in the Provo airport, Steph, Julie, and Julie's boyfriend came to pick me up and they brought signs! Such as Harrison, April, and WELCOME BACK!
