Sam and Kayce bought a house!

This blog title pretty much gives away the content of this update... but our siblings purchased a house last week! Wahoo! And in true Strader form, less than 24 hours later, they had the place half demolished and on the way to an incredible makeover. A makeover that I already have permission to blog... :)

Here's what you need to understand, is that Sam and Kayce are incredibly gifted. I believe all people are gifted in different ways, but they possess particular skills that I think are really neat. :) Sam has developed incredibly construction and woodworking skills, and Kayce has a great eye and is wonderful with execution. They make awesome homemade Christmas gifts. All of that being said, their new home is going to be beautiful!

Ben and I are so thankful for our older siblings. (Sam is Ben's older brother, and Kayce is his wife... but we're all just the Strader siblings these days!) From the very moment we got engaged they have constantly been their to lend advice and support as we established our footing in married/adult life. We are truly blessed with the closeness that our family shares.

Here are some photos from the first time we went to visit their new house, about a month ago. Stay tuned for more updates!
