Under Construction!

If you were to drive up to my house tomorrow, you would say"What the heck is goin' on?"
Well let me just fill you in! Neal has this idea that he needs a shop, and I guess he has convinced me he needs it also. So while he was busy dreaming this thing up, we also decided to add another room onto the house - what the heck right, why not?

So here we are, the slab is ready to be poured. There are men here working everyday and Neal stays out till dark after he gets home from work...and I just watch from afar with no questions asked. After all, I know he must have this all figured out so I stay out of it. From the little I have asked, I was under the impression that the shop would be twice the size of my house - not that I like this fact, but I guess its understandable.
So the farther along we get, I start having guys all over town asking me questions like, how many bays will it have and how many square feet, etc. Stuff I don't know...and stuff I wish I never would have found out about! APPARENTLY..........It's not twice the size of my house - try three times! Now that I have a slight problem with! But luckily for Neal, the slab had already been poured, all the metal bought and etc, etc, etc! Gosh he gets everything, do you remember this?
Ok, so I'm not really that upset about it! I'm actually really proud of him & happy that he will finally get a smaller version of his dream shop- he absolutely deserves it! And I'm totally amazed at how smart he is to know how to design and build a huge building from the ground up all on his own! And I also must say that I don't have it so bad myself - I love my life and my sweet husband pretty much lets me have whatever I want! Thanks Babe!
So on to the cuter stuff!
With all the construction, dirt and machinery around these days, Ella has been very entertained and is having a ball!





She has probably digested 5 pounds of dirt in the last month, and our septic system probably has about 50 extra pounds from all the dirt I have rinsed off of her in the bath tub. But who cares right? Not Me!
These are memories of a lifetime!
