A couple of things...

to share with you today. First, I have some roof progress pictures. Some of them (of the back of the house) were taken yesterday. The ones of the front are what is going on today. It is threatening to rain some more, but these guys are awesome and just keep pounding away.

This is yellow house before its makeover.

This is the roof over our sunroom on the backside of the house (yes, I had to climb up on the ladder. Ethan said "Momma, I don't think this is a good idea." Smart little man he is!)


The outer edge of the sunroom with new shingles (aren't they beautiful?)


Tearing off the front of the roof

Movin' right along!!

Hopefully I will have finished yellow house pictures soon. It is supposed to rain all weekend, so I don't expect them back until next week. Oooo, it's going to be pretty!!

Second order of business is a little video I took last night of Ethan. He was watching Jungle Book with Jacob while they were eating a "picnic" in the living room. Apparently, he thought Mowgli and Baloo were funny.

He was actually laughing harder a few minutes before but, of course, I didn't have the camera in hand.

  1. Very cool! I can relate with the roofing that you are going through. We just finished our big roofing job a few weeks ago. Infact, Dave is working on some finishing touches today. It feels great to improve doesn't it??

  2. It would feel great to improve, but, all they have finished is the underlayment stuff. Today, we are getting four inches of rain. What was one leaky, drippy spot in the sunroom has become three leaky, drippy spots (the kitchen - over the sink, the laundry area - coming out the ceiling fan, and our attic), not to mention the water that is leaking into the basement. I was feeling rather pitiful earlier. The roofer guys came and put a tarp over the chimney which is what was leaking today and stopped the three new leaks, but the basement is still an issue. Surely it will be better in a couple of days!!
