a busy week . . .

Well it was a busy week of Grampa & Gramma & Aunty Sue visiting. The kids went mini-golfing, McD's, walks, to the park, their cousin's house, shopping, in the hot tub at Opa & Oma's, and more all in the attempt to keep them away from our backyard while our deck was redone. Brad's dad was hard at work the whole week and the result is amazing - the deck is so much bigger and safer now! We have been out there so much already and will probably be out there every day this summer. The girls even enjoyed all three meals outside yesterday and there will be lots more days like that! So thanks again Dad & Mom for all the hard work and to Aunty Sue for being an enormous help with the girls and keeping me sane this week! We had so much fun!!

The deck looks really good.
Sure has lots of spindles, but that adds to the character of the deck.
