It's A Boy!

Our little guy! :-)

Flexing his muscles already...

What we've been up to...

The majority of our summer and fall was spent on a new home improvement project, and it is ALMOST done!

The previous owners of our house had a hottub, which sounded like a fun thing when we bought the house. However, they let the pipes freeze (and burst), so we decided to get rid of the hottub rather than fix it. This left us with a large hole in the middle of the deck as well as lots of warped and peeling boards.


So... we decided to take on the new project of rebuildling our deck. Greg did an awesome job of planning and laying out the whole thing. And then with the help of some great friends, the purchase of a miter saw (and a new drill and new skill saw) it is three rails short of being done! Hooray!




Gutting the old deck!

Measuring boards for the lower level.


Framework for the upper level!



We were so thankful for the friends who helped us!


Good thing we picked only strong friends to help!


Getting there...


Yeah! Almost done!
