Walls are done, ice machine installed and now, the drink machines...
The walls are finally up! We got them done a few nights ago. Grant and Byram have been working on finishing up some of the details. It seems the little things take the longest and can often make the biggest impact.
The ice machine is in place and yesterday we worked on getting the drink machines installed and completing the ceiling tile repair.
Getting the drinks in is a very big thing. Grant called and said, "Bring your camera, we're installing the machines!" So we rushed down to the store and watched as the technician crawled into the tiny attic hole and up through the ceiling. We didn't want the piping for the coke fountains to show, so we needed to run the hoses through the walls and through the ceiling. That was a job! To say the least. But Rodney, the technician, was skilled at his job and helped us set it up so the hardward would not be seen. Grant even installed some electrical outlets on the wall behind the machines, so we could have electric access. WOW! I'm so proud of my husband. He can do anything! And with his faith God is doing great things through him.
Mr. Rodney needed a little help with the cords and hoses. He asked if Austin would come and hold onto the big black piping so they could lift the machine into place. Of course, Austin didn't hesitate. He loves to help and get involved. And he was small enough to fit under the counter and into the cabinet. See his face peeking through the guys.
Now we have a brand new soda machine, brand new tea and coffee urns and a lemonade pitcher.
More coming soon.
We've got to go right now and see how the progress is coming along.

Kimmi, I am so excited about your restaurant! I didn't see you at the pic-nic? But it was so nice to meet you & your lovely family. Makenzie really enjoyed playing ball with Makayla. When you get up & running we will have to come & give you some business :)

Kim, Yes it was wonderful to finally put a face with your name. I agree and want you to know how nice it was to meet you and you precious family. I wish we would have been able to talk at the pic nic. Too bad.
We were so busy with the kids and playing ball that I didn't really do much else.
Oh, I have been trying to log on to your blog and have not had any success. Is it having problems? Hope not.
I hope you all can come over and let us serve you at the restaurant.
Love to you~Kimi
Everything is looking so good!
