Caution Men at Work


Here was my view from my lounge chair in the yard on Sunday as Colby and Uncle Donny power washed our back fence. Next weekend Colby will stain it so it should match our sides pretty darn closely.








They also installed a back gate.





They were on a power washing spree that spanned the whole yard! They washed down the swing set, lawn chairs, bbq cover, bbq, and back deck! It was awesome to watch :)





While Colby and Uncle Donny worked outside. Dad S bbq'd up amazing ribs and garlic chicken for dinner. Mom S and Aunt Wendy helped me work in the nursery. Okay they worked and I directed from a chair. Pictures will be released once the room is complete :)
Colby and Uncle Donny weren't allowed to eat until they installed a new fan in our bedroom! YEAH! Last night we enjoyed the cool breeze immensely.


Poor Colby hasn't been able to catch a break from my insane "honey do list/nesting" Today he redid all the bark in the front gardens as well as hung up a new hanging basket. I think he is ready to go back to work.



Don't you agree the front garden looks excellent! Please don't look to closely at this picture as you might notice the hole in the front window. Freak lawn mowing accident... Luckily it didn't go through both panes or the cars or Colby!


Ah, but wait just one more thing! Latches on the back gate :)

I promise not to over work him this week or DSHS might come and take him away from me :)

It's hammer time!

So Rome may not have been built in a day but our fence was!! Colby rocked it out on Saturday with the help of Uncle Donny and Aunt Wendy! We really appreciated their help and expertise. I was sick this past weekend so my job was to hold the boards in place for Colby. Got to say, I was super impressed with his hammering abilities! (Whistle) He went from 8 hits per nail to 2 hits per nail. My, my (wink, wink) His arms are still sore but I think the little neighbor girl even had a crush on him by the end of Saturday.
