Christmas 2014 Work Project!

-Beware picture overload! Our Christmas gift to my parents this year was to finish some projects. We probably made more projects then we finished but there is always next year or the year after.

 -London-

 -Branson, ran the shovel and wheelbarrow-

 -Zack, cased all the windows-

 -Elle loving it outside-

 -Meg, this trooper stacked up the fort and helped Ross-

 -Ross, burned all of the tumble weeds, and dead grass-

 -Boston-

 -Brice stacking up the bricks-

 -April, watched the kids-

 -Tia washed dishes all day-

 -Brooks helped fill up the water storage-

 -Hope cleaned out and up the storage room-

 -Chase the carpenter, put in all the trim around the living room and dining room-

-Zack, Ty, and Chase,  these three did all the building on the inside of the house-

Overview of what was done: All water storage was refreshed, anything in the food storage that was out of date was thrown out, storage room was reorganized, windows were cased, front porch light works, new door hung in the dining room, bead board hung around front room and dining room, lawns were mowed, weed wacked, and fertilized, the sprinkler box was fixed and all the sprinklers work, all the tumble weeds were burned along with the tall grasses and dead leafs, the bricks were stacked back up, and the trailer was loaded with stuff to take to the dump. That's a bunch to accomplish in a days time. 

One of my favorite things about my family is our ability to work together. Sure we bicker with one another and get on each others nerves but when there is work to be done I love that we can all get together and get the work done.
