Week ending 5-24-20

Monday: Makenna reading. 
Eating school lunch at the park. The parks opened on my birthday and we're so excited. 
Tuesday: Having dear friends, the Webbers over for dinner. We met them when we lived Texas and they had 1 baby and I had 2. I'm so happy we've kept in contact over the years and they visit us when they come to Utah. (They now live in Peru and work for the US embassy.) 
Lettuce, onions, and kale coming along nicely. 
Wednesday: Ruth and Tilly played together nicely for 2 whole days straight. 
Friday: Getting school lunches and taking off for Wyoming to visit cousins. 
Checking out the Hofmann's new loft. They only had the log frame when we came 2 years ago and now they have so much done!! 
Eating foil dinners. 
Playing on the rope swing in the playroom. 

Starting to lay the vinyl planking down in the living room. 
Lunch break: Taking pictures of the makeshift kitchen set up in the garage. 
The big fridges are just pantries for the time being. But the other fridge works. 
Lots of drawers and cupboards and counter space. They don't have an oven set up but have a microwave, camping stove and crock pot.  
Back to work. This is my brother Ben and his daughter, Toad (DeEtte.) Janet broke her pelvis and wrist so she's out of commission this summer. Toad was awesome helping with the construction, watching the kids, and cooking all the meals. She's an amazing 14 year old and I loved working with her. 
Andy was engrossed with how Ben ran the saws. 

View from the stairs. 
What will be the yoga studio. 
Master bedroom (but saw area for now.) 
The windows make this not a great picture, but the wood is so beautiful. 
Looking over the balcony. Almost finished! We're to the other side of the living room. We started at 9am and finished at 7pm.  This is me, Tad, and Spencer setting this row.

Spencer and Ben hammering them in tightly. 

Toad, Alexis, and Kylie opened new boxes of planking and sorted them, then put them in the rows to set.  
Tilly showing Kaitlyn a piece of chocolate Tad gave her. 
 
The telehandler about to get the baby grand piano out of the garage and carry it to the front dor. 

The telehandler driving by the side of the house with the piano. 
Dropping it off on the deck where a bunch of guys carried it inside. 
Watching the excitement. The Hofmanns have been waiting for a living room to put their piano in for 3 years. 

Kylie getting to play it. 
Waiting for church to start. 

Singing around the piano. 
Andy and Samuel eating their lunch on the steps with Talea photobombing in the back. :)
