The Shed: The real work begins.

This weekend was AMAZINGLY CRAZY! and for the record, I HATE that blogger loads pics funny, every time I think I got it figured out they switch it or they load wrong, so I give up! hopefully you'll be able to follow along anyway...


Friday night Chris and I prepped the site... we cleared everything and drilled holes in the base boards. Then Early Saturday morning we started pulling the rest of the supplies to the back yard and Chris and Adlanna started the first wall. The neighbor Randy who is a plumber poked his head over the fence got this excited look on his face and said I used to Frame I'll be over in a second! He was excited like a little boy at Christmas! Which was just in time to help lift the first wall up and set it.

They took off and got the second wall up in no time!!!



(these next few are Adlanna doing the actions to itsy bitsy spider, one of her favorites!)


and clapping for herself afterwards!









The third wall went up FASTER because they waited to put the plywood on it, until after it was up! Then my mom and dad arrived around 1pm to help! They got the plywood attached and then the rains started, which was fine for like 45min... then it POURED... I meant to take a pic of the pool or wheelbarrow to show you how much we finally got, it was surprising! So we all ran inside to take cover... But we were hungry too so we set out to dinner at TEXAS ROAD HOUSE in St. George and then to run a few errands.

The food was yummy of course... and it is always fun to go out with family. We ran to Target afterwards to exchange something and ended up walking through and finding some KILLER clearance deals...including a vacuum!!! and the outfit we are going to bring Jennalee home in. Then over to Lowe's, where they had security doors clearanced for 59 bucks, we finally decided against, but when we were loading into the car in the parking lot my Cousin Josh walked up and said hello. Which is funny because I was just telling my mom that they just had their 3 baby on Thurs. and were here in town... so to run into him was funny!


Saturday: Chris was out by 8am, starting the work back on the shed. Randy popped his head over and said "I'll be right over!" HA HA HA
My parents showed up a little bit later and all the hard work began! They ended up finishing the 4Th wall and then started on the Roof before we realized we were short wood for the roof and went on a trip to Home depot to get more... Well the boys went to HD the girls went grocery shopping at Walmart, then to grab lunch to bring back for the HARD WORKING MEN.









I heard "oh this roof will be done in about an hour, then we will be done for the day" a few times, then 2 .5 hrs later they were still working at it...

CHOO CHOO







Finished for the weekend


So Finally we were finished for the weekend it was like 4pm on Sunday... We somehow ended up with BROWN rain gutter stuff that we have to put up first before putting shingles on... so we have to wait until Tuesday (when the store is open) to switch it for tan or black to match our house! DUH silly guys putting the order together.. who wants brown metal with black singles...

So the rest of the night we had a bbq and ate food and visited. Adlanna was sure entertaining she copied a lot of new words and had giggling fits playing with PA AND MA... (which is what she learned to call them... we were teaching her grandma and grandpa and she would just say PA and MA...)

The outfit!

My dad coloring with Adlanna

my new VAC!!!! I love clearance!!!!
Do you think he is tired?

We got to bed early everyone was exhausted!!! In the morning Chris slept in, and my parents took off to head home early since we couldn't do anything else shedwise... and we had a million reasons to get to delta which we were going to do next weekend, but since we will now be roofing next weekend we ran to Delta on the spur of the moment. we left at 10:30am. Delta story and pics to follow. :)

A few random notes not pertaining to the weekend:

Adlanna got a dang cute swimming suit in the mail from Aunt Josie, I will be taking pics of her in it and posting those later this week when the backyard is clean and we can swim again... she sells them on her Etsy site which is :HERE

The GD is interesting... and frusterating... its easier to find things to eat now that i'm getting used to everything, but if my levels are high I freak out a little and run out for a walk or whatever barefoot because I am nervouse and want to get those numbers back down... sad to say I think they are high too often!!! Especially for sticking to the diet so well, might I add! The poking is easier I hurry and just do it and not think about it... so that's easier.

Joane announced that she will be spending nearly the entire month of July here in UT ... which will mean she will have her 2weekish old with her... so we have to plan a week/end to go up and see her in July, of course I am VERY excited!!!
