Welcome Home Daddy!

Brian was in Arizona this week for work so Carter and I made him a banner this morning ...


Carter had lots of fun finding cool stickers in our stockpile.

Brian hadn't gotten to see all the amazing progress on our house this week so he was looking forward to seeing it tonight. When the boys and I went out last night, we didn't see many changes. The house wrap had been taped together to create a good seal. And the front porch was finished up (for now).

We were surprised tonight to see the shingles already on. Brian commented that this was obviously not our crew from back in Knoxville. It even rained this morning and they still got it all up in one day.



We also noticed that anywhere the plywood on the exterior walls had holes in it, wood scraps were nailed onto those spots from the inside.

Since there were two of us, Brian and I were able to venture up to the second floor one at a time. Carter was not happy at all about not getting to also go up there but it was impossible with the makeshift ladder nailed to the studs. There may have been several minutes of crying. Hopefully they build the stairs soon!
