Labor Day, er um, Week

Who knew that taking old shingles off of the roof would create a pile of mess as tall as the actual roof?! BTW where are the trash cans and bikes that used to live here? Just wondering.

A couple of roofing pros and PeterPan showed up. J/K. I wish that getting up there were as easy as flying like Pan though, the ladder terrifies me!

Huge  THANK YOU!!! to the neighbors, and family that showed up to help. We would still be doing tear off a week later instead of a day away from completion.

Now, if the ladder didnt scare me so much this little guy still would. Short Story, but a scary one: Daddy tells kids who are helping to just "jump off" onto the tramp. "Its like the diving board at the pool." Fortunately mom wasnt there to have a heart attack(kids wouldnt be up there at all if mom were there!) . Unfortunately daddy forgot that T. isnt your average 5yr old who jumps in feet first. I'ts head first or nothing! Good news. He landed it. Nice! The End.

Speaking of nice. My Super Nice sister spent the entire day watching my kids, feeding them several times and then CLENAED MY HOUSE!!! Wow! Thank You so much!! Just knowing the kids were still alive would have been good enough. How did you do that all with 1 hand (babycakes in the other)?!
