House Update

Deric worked on the soffit and fascia this weekend, he used pump jacks to get up there... (not that you know what that is...) here they are set up...

He stands on the plank at the bottom and pumps the blue parts with his feet to 'walk' it up the 2x4's, then he goes to the other side and does the same thing and then goes back to the first one again, so on and so forth till he is where he needs to be.
Here he is bravely holding on for dear life and trying to work at the same time.
It's pretty stinking high up there!
At least it was a really nice day to be working...
The girls were outside cheering daddy on (yes, they are still wearing them!) and playing in the dirt.
They were being cute playing with the tree.
This one is for you Jessica... Papaw has the grandkids names tattooed on his arms... this is 'our' arm.

Are you kidding! My dad doesn't have any tattoos! This is Deric's dad... it is only Deric and his sister so her 4 kids are on the other arm.
