Oh, friends. The sun is shining again. It was 62 degrees on Thursday. We live in Idaho – all of this is bound to change in the next twenty minutes but, holy handbaskets, watching the snow melt feels like we are King Leonidas and winter is that messenger guy and we are just kicking him right into that bottomless pit. Adios, snowpocalypse.
Adam & Layne – This week, our attention was focused on the possibility of getting started with the foundation laying part of our addition. With the break in the weather, we were able to get started on Thursday! They are likely pouring concrete this afternoon and we are seriously off to the races after that. Adam had to jackhammer the back steps away yesterday; it took him something like seven and a half hours to demolish them. Here’s a little peek into the progress – we’ll write up the full update next week.
Also – my birthday is around the corner (hence the birthday flowers from my Ma at the top of the post) and Adam scored me the coolest present. I’m mildly obsessed with Polaroid photos. Enter this sweet little Instax printer.
These little pictures make my day.
Ivy & Leo: These two are enamored with what is happening in our backyard. Ivy’s window faces the backyard and, when the two of them stand on her bed, they can see everything. So they watch. And watch. And watch.
If they knew that, at the end of this project, they would have a new playroom – I bet they’d be even more pumped.
That’s the rundown. We’ll catch you back here next week with lots of photos/videos of the project!
