fixed box...


So I was getting ready to make dinner and I was talking to KJ and I happened to look out the kitchen window...and what we did a see? A little doe looking at me! It was just sitting there enjoying the shade of the ivy and watching us through the window. I don't know if you can tell but it is only about 4-5 feet from the house. Once I got PG to actually notice it, his eyes went big and he was fixed on it. He went over the the sliding door and patted his hello, on the window! It was cute.
After dinner, it was time to go help daddy and grandpa fix the mailbox. Last Feb. PG and I went to PA to be there when Kira was blessed. While we were gone, they got a pretty good ice storm. we live at the bottom of a steep hill, and essesially the road "T"'s in front of our house. Well a lady came down the hill and went to turn Right, unfortunately she wasn't able to do that as planned due to the ice and snow....she slide around the corner and right into our flower bed, running over the big rock, knocking out the mailbox and getting stopped by the tree. KJ was at work and I was out of town but she did leave a note with her number. KJ talked her. It is kinda funny. Well, just got around to fixing it! Papa came to help. They dug the hole and reinforced the area with rebar, and made a form for the cement. Notice PG out there "helping", he loves to be outside, especially if Daddy and Grandpa are involved!
While they mixed the cement and talked to the neighbor, PG went exploring in the garage and found the tools! Heaven!!!
After mixing the cement, they had to pump up the tire on the wheelbarrow in order to get it to move to where the hole was that needed filled. :o) Classic!!
Here are the guys pouring the cement. The mailman isn't going to know what to do with a mail box where it is supposed to be instead of propped up by cinder blocks! Heehee!!! Great job Guys!!!
To say thanks, we had Mama and Papa over for Ice cream. Here is PG in one of his favorite places...grandpa's lap! :O) Thanks for all you do!! :o) We love you Papa!
