Building a House - Walls, Roof, and so Much More


YAY! The house is finally started.


Grant ends up looking like this every time we go to the house.
What is it with boys and dirt?


Our back door,


floor,


garage,


getting the trusses on,


living room,


windows, 

and the roof!  
The construction is moving fast now, 
a lot has happened even since these pictures. 


There is an end in sight!

Six


A handsome, funny, intense, sweet, thoughtful boy turned 6 a couple of weeks ago. 
Yeah its Garrett


Garrett is fun on his birthday because he gets super excited about every gift. 


Funny cake story, Garrett picked a cake mix that had an extra pudding pack to put in it. I made two  cakes and was planning on stacking them. Unfortunately when I did the pudding part started sliding all over. I tried to save it with 3 "buckets" (as Madilyn put it) of frosting but in the end I had to admit defeat. We bought his cake at Costco and let him pick a couple of transformers to put on top. Done.

I love that every time I tell Garrett to smile for the camera he makes this face.
