Construction Zone

My awesome husband is so handy! He can do almost anything to our house. He has done so much painting, fixing, pruning, planting... I just can't tell you all he's done. But he really does a great job on all his projects!

Scott and I are just learning that projects get quite a bit trickier with Jesse here to help.

"Hey, Dad! Ya want me to climp up the ladder to help you prune this tree??"


This is as far as Jesse got.


Look around all you want, kid.
We've got our eyes on you, and you're not gonna sneak anything past us.

"Ooooooh! A shop vac! This will be great for chewing on!"


Oil based paint comes out with paint thinner.
Ask me how excited I was to have to use it on my covered-in-paint kid.
We also have some clothes that will always have this trim color on them.


"If I bend down real low, maybe they won't see me behind these bushes.
Then I'm gonna knock 'em over and pull out as many leaves as I can!"
Isn't this the CUTEST face?!

There are plenty of other photo ops that were missed, because they were too dangerous to capture. I didn't have time to get to the camera and keep my kid safe. :)

Oh, goodness. If we only lived in a padded gymnastics-type house. :)
