Summer improvements around the house….=)

My dad and Isaac have been very busy this spring/summer, with not only the increase of work at my dad’s pallet business, but with the weekly summer chores around the house. (Mowing and weed-whacking to mention a few)  And on top of all this they’ve found time to do a few extra improvements to the house and yard this spring. These two guys are two of the hardest working men I know…and they never quit till the job, they’ve started, is finished.

So here’s a few photos of the things they’ve been up too this done this summer.

First they mulched the flower beds…Isaac showed me the blisters on his hand from unloading it, why he doesn’t wear gloves is a mystery. IMG_2097Doesn’t it look beautiful?!?!?IMG_2100And the hummingbirds=)  they had this feeder drained in a weeks time…IMG_2102Discussing a minor problem with the construction of a new set of stair on the other side of our front porch.IMG_2226IMG_2227IMG_2228IMG_2231IMG_2234IMG_2236IMG_2239IMG_2244IMG_2245

What home improvements have you done on your house/yard this year?

Happy Friday!!!!

  1. Tiling the hall, next is laminate in my home office, then perhaps extend the tile into the living room.
    BTW the only way to get him to wear gloves is to hand them to him right before the job starts. That's the way I've been since I was his age. No legitimate reason, simply won't take the time to find them, put them on, unless absolutely necessary.

  3. We have been working on building the garage, and cleaning everything up. The mulch looks very nice. We need to get some for our house. Dad is also going to finish the two bathrooms, hopefully soon. My hands are a blistered right now to, from shoveling out the coop, then I helped Dad shovel a ton of dirt. Yeah, I hate to wear gloves, unless I absolutely need them. :) ~Hannah
