Friday night Jason, Corey and Aric began measuring, marking, starting our new deck! Earlier in the night Jason and Corey demolished the old deck. Kimberly and her two boys came over to hang out while the boys worked. It was great family fun! Our great neighbor, Jack, even came over to supervise the boys...heck it was mostly his tools, lights and knowledge they were working with!!! LOL Kimberly and Aric and the boys left around midnight Friday night, whereas Corey and Jason continued on until 2:30am...
The next day Jason just piddled around the deck for a while and did some tinkering!!! The next day Corey was out bright and early and him and Jason were back at it! They worked hard framing, nailing, screwing, all day. They barely stopped for lunch! Mom, Kimberly, Wyatt and Gage were back out around noon and hung out again! It was great girl time! Around 4 Candie, Kurt and Bird came out so Kurt could lend his carpentry skills! I grilled cheeseburgers for everyone for dinner. Everyone worked tirelessly...Candie finally convinced Kurt it was time to go around 10:30, after several rounds of UNO...they did have to work the next day! They took mom home, since Kimberly took her boys home earlier in the evening so they wouldn't be too tired for school the next day!
All in all by 10:30 Sunday night we had a new 12x12 deck framed and floored! It's beautiful!
Shout out to Corey, Aric, Jack and Kurt for all of your help!!! And thanks to Kimberly, Mom and Candie for the great girl time!
