Week Twenty Eight

I know, I know! I'm a little late on the post again this week, but I have a good excuse. We began yet ANOTHER home improvement project this past week! We replaced doors, windows and siding. Before saying anything more I must thank a few people for all of their hard work and generosity. A HUGE thanks to Ryan, Nick, Bubba, Dayon, Mom and Dad Hanks, Mom and Dad Dresel, and to Jack for being such a trooper on this project! We couldn't have done it without all of you!


Jack got to experience the truck for the first time this week. As many of you know Tom and I do not drive nice vehicles, so needless to say escorting Jack around in them is always a little worrisome. Yes, yes, yes the airbag was turned off!


Look at me sitting all by myself! We can't believe how strong our little man is getting.


Look mom...no windows! As if we didn't do enough to this room already. We completely gutted and redid Jack's nursery, and once it was all complete we decided to replace the window, along with five others in our house.


It is a good thing Tom and Grandpa Tom aren't afraid of heights!


Jack enjoys eating lunch with Grandpa Tom.


Grandma Jane and Grandpa Tim were roped into another of our home improvement projects. Since the purchase of our house they have learned to tile a floor, install a ceiling fan, install a furnace, replace windows, and reside a house. We're just waiting to break the news to them that we are going to build our next house ourselves! JUST KIDDING...I hope!


Grandpa Tom and Grandpa Tim take a few minutes out to enjoy Jack.


Jack didn't have any troubles napping during the project, even with all of the hammering and sawing.


Tom had a little too much hammering and sawing for one day. I'm sure the old fashions didn't help!


Supervising the "crew" with Grandma Jane.


This damn tool box! It never fails that it will get opened the wrong way and a bunch of tools will spill out all over! This time the culprit was neighbor Dan and not Tom. Poor Grandma Jane gets stuck putting everything back into the rightful place.


Entertaining the grandparents.


Look out AARP here I come with my Blue-Blockers!


Grandma Nancy entertains Jack while the rest of us sit down and take a break. No wonder the woman is so skinny...she doesn't slow down!!!!!!
