The new deck is coming right along...
Of course even though she hasn't been around it at all Lilli managed to already get injured from the project - we were playing in her splash pool yesterday afternoon and she tripped on a stack of lumber and whacked herself in the head above her eye.It's late so no real time to post and Brent is having me help him clear up everything since it may rain tomorrow. Here's one of the last daylight pictures we took today:
And here's how it looks a few minutes ago. It went a lot slower today with just Brent working on it and me watching Lilli. It was nice having the families up here on Friday and Saturday to help move things along faster.
He got up close to the house but since those boards will need to be ripped and will take longer to cut that's something that should be done during the day. But he did get started on the railings.
It's been SO hot. I have a huge bag of empty Gatorade bottles for the recycle can. It's been 100 the last 3 days of work on the deck and I think everyone got a random spot or two sunburned. This is how Lilli looked after just a 1 mile walk in the stroller (hot and sweaty, she's not sunburned.)
So, it's been a VERY busy weekend but pretty productive! We have a busy week of refinancing after work tomorrow, and Lilli has a pm 18-month well baby visit on Tuesday so time might be short the next few days on the deck but hopefully not!
