A Well Deserved Break








Last weekend my parents took the Lake Express ferry across and helped us move all of the boxes and such that were in the garage of the townhouse. Dad also built shelves in the garage, changed out the outside lights, helped w/the sump pump and built Jackson a sand box. THANK YOU! They worked their butts off for us and we really appreciate it.

Since then we've been priming and painting, getting new carpet in, mowing the lawn and trying to sort things out. Through it all Jackson has been great! He's played with his toys, and in his sandbox and just kept himself busy so that we could work.

Today Jackson and I took a well deserved break from the house and enjoyed the beautiful day. We went down to Bayshore (the mall) and our first stop was to Barnes and Noble to play with the trains and pick out a new one, he got Mighty Mac. Then we stopped to pick up some pizza and went down to the plaza to watch the summer concert and the kids playing in the fountain. After our lunch we went down and got our feet wet with the other kids. It was exactly what we needed!
Tomorrow Steve and Marcia come in to help us move the rest. We're praying for no rain and no surprises.
