A Dad a Daughter and a Deck









This weekend my dad and I built a deck. We built it in Sassy's old kennel area and I plan on doing a little Sassy tribute when I decorate the new outdoor dining area. My dad and I built it in two days. Day one was very hard and exhausting (and hot), day two there was more for my dad to do and less for me. My mom helped move a couple boards. Oh and she entertained Lucy so we could focus on deck building. Tomorrow is BBQ day! It's been great having a long weekend together. Here are some before, during and after photos. Hope you are all having a wonderful weekend. Summer's fading.

Well, wow! Aren't you the handy ones!! I can paint, wallpaper, stage a house, but build- not I! I am sure you will have a great time out there.

you kinda made it sound like a after thought about your mom moving a few boards and taking care of feisty Lucy. She was doing what she was told. like the good grandma she is.

I can testify that after spending the weekend sitting on that deck (drinking beer) it is a perfect addition.
