The Hottest Weekend of the Summer

And we are building a deck! Yes, Shawn picked the hottest weekend of summer to be outside doing manual labor 24/7. We've been hard at work for about 2 weeks now (well, after work Shawn works for a few hours til dark, this is only the 2nd weekend of real-all-day-work. Shawn took yesterday off and worked from sun up til sun down and I was impressed when he rolled out of bed ready to go again this morning. Here's their progress as of yesterday around 3pm.


Shawn's dad got to join in the fun yesterday - I hope he was able to get out of bed today too...thanks Ed for the hard work! It's hard to see what it actually looks like in pics. We'll have the big patio as you walk out and then to the left is the deck - one step up. My husband is such a stud.

Shawn's deadline for the deck in this Thursday as we have company coming in town on Friday and we are having a big barbeque with a bunch of shawn's old fraternity brothers and their families on Saturday night. I'm so excited to see the finished project!

Ok, I am being beckoned by my three children at my feet - more later!!
Hope you are having the time of your life!
