Let the fun begin...

Well, this morning we started with the demo of the concrete/rock and are digging the footers for the new master bed and bath. Thanks to Daniel, Tommy, Clifton, and Dad for coming and helping us today. Also, we want to thank Dad for letting us borrow his backhoe. I don't want to forget to thank Elizabeth, Jennifer, and Stephanie for letting us borrow their husbands! Thank you!!!

Here is the house. We are moving the front door to the middle of the big window in front and adding a porch. We are changing pretty much everything about the house. Come back for updates.



We are enclosing the carport.


Waiting to start...


We have 1.24 acres inside Clinton and Eli's got plenty of room to run and play. But my little man loves to play near the road!


Daniel and Tommy put Eli in the backhoe tire. Too cute!



He kept getting back in the tire and smiling and saying cheese.



Here is Tommy getting the stone/rock up. It is everywhere!!!


This tree fell down last week when we had that big wind and storms. Tommy was moving it out of our way.


More stone/rock at the back of the house.

I was taking this picture and Matt's say... "where's Eli?"



Here he is! Tommy let him ride in the backhoe.


Eli says cheese now when I'm taking pictures. I think this is a down spout thing for the guttering. Not sure though.



Up close! You can tell his hair is a little uneven. I guess I will try to cut his hair from now on. Bonnie does a great job on everyone else, but Eli's is always a little uneven. Does anyone know of another person to cut Eli's hair?
