Almost Done!!

We made a lot of progress but didn't quite get it all done. Ken was at work until 2 and we worked hard after that. There is about 30 feet that we need to finish. Here are a couple of photos.

How did I do that?

I'm not sure what I did to get the construction photos way down to August 16 but there are 5 photos for our fence construction. Enjoy!

Fence Building

Hi,
We worked most of yesterday on getting the frame up for the fence and we were able to get it all up. Grandma Dolly and Grandpa Gordy came and took the kids to the park after their naps so that helped. We had a lot of potty breaks and needing drinks but got a lot done. We also got started late since Ken had to help deliver a baby. After dinner we went to their hotel and swam and had a great time. The kids loved the water and it was nice that it helped with us not getting sore muscles. We are putting on the pickets today!! YEAH!!! More pictures after we are done today.

I think it worked this time........................Let's see!

Sorry

Hi Everybody,
I have been trying for two days to get some photos on here and I can't figure out why they won't go on. It says that they are uploaded and then they are not there. the kids are in bed and I am going to try again. Thanks for being patient.
Have a great week-end.

Vacation

We are having a great trip so far. We made it to Mom and Dad's Friday, I ended up leaving Mankato at about 1:30 so we were here for a late supper. Saturday we got up and ready for Evan's Birthday party at Jungle Bungle. It has a huge playplace and we were there for 4 1/2 hours, I think that says that they had a great time. It was great to see all of our friends and see everybody having a good time.

Sunday we went to Church in Maquoketa and that was fun. We left from there and headed to Chicago. It started out a little rought with crabby kids but they slept a little and we stopped to let them run. We went right to the hotel and other than a few rude drivers we made it fine. What a crazy place.

We went to Navy Pier and saw so many things. Boats, old ships, crazy people, and did they ever stare at our triple stroller. It was fun. I don't have the stuff I need to load my pictures so I will have to add them later. My cousin, Karen and her family came down for about 7 hours and that was great fun. We went to the Pier and to the Rain Forest Cafe. That was awesome!

Evan and my Dad are having a great time and have traveled allover. They have been in IL, IN, and WI. I will get the marked map from Dad and let you know more later. They are having a great time and who needs a radio when you have Evan. The truckers come home tonight.

We have been at Mom's since yesterday and helped her get some things done around here and let her get lots of loving from the kids.......good medicine.

Ken is learing a lot at his conference but syas it is much better when there are others there, and I would agree. It is strange for us to be aprt over night but he is done today and will get here later.

All for now. I will add pictures when I get home.

Have a great week.
