Here is the whole Mark Porter clan.
Mark and little Bridger, how sweet!

Eli is all boy!

Look at that cute face on Miss Liela!

Our two sweet grandchildren, Eli & Liela.

Here's Matt and his family when we were in Australia in March of this year.


How cool is Adam on this old Honda 90? With gas prices the way they are it's the way to go.

Adam didn't think the Honda 90 was enough for him so he got this Honda 400.

Here is some of the family on the Susan G Koman, breast cancer 5K walk/run.


This is our master bathroom vanity. We still have the mirrors and lighting to finish.

After 30 some years I finally got a china cupboard to fill the space we had made for one.


Here's Bill putting in some can lighting in the kitchen.

One last picture just showing you the back of the house now that the siding is completed. Lots of siding, isn't it? Once we get a deck on and a deck cover it should break it up a bit. That's it for now!

Almost forgot to add this picture of our new front porch. We have had a problem with water and snow building up on the porch so this should help.

Here's the final view of the almost finished kitchen. I even took up the paper off the floor and cleaned up the wood flooring. Only the double ovens are hooked up and working. The frig, dishwasher, cooktop, microwave and the sinks, still have to be hooked up. I might actually have a working kitchen pretty soon.

This is the kitchen sink which is a large stainless sink (non-divided) and a single handle faucet with a pull down sprayer. I also decided to have a soap dispenser on this and the island sink just to eliminate soap bottles sitting around.

This is our new 5 burner gas cooktop. I've never cooked with gas before so I'm looking forward to trying it out, as long as I can do it without getting it dirty. Everything is so new and clean I don't like the thought of making a mess. I'll get over it soon enough.

Here is a view of the kitchen from the frig to the sink under the window. The only thing missing is the microwave oven that goes over the cooktop.
