Laying block, having fun :)

Today Ry, Josh and myself started laying block on a garage addition we're building. We dug out the foundation and footer the other week, so now we're working on the walls.

Some advertising for our company... not that any of you would need our services... :)

Ryan started the footer digging...

I joined in later on... :)

Digging...

This is called a transit... it beams a lazer around the job, keeping everything on a level line.

After all the real work was done the little guys got to dig around a stump...

With Ryan's help, of course :)

Ry took this shot of me as I laid block for the first time today- it was really fun, and it turned out not to be very difficult at all! :)

We have had Edward Martin's children at our house for a few days, while he and his wife have a few days off in celebration of their anniversary.

Tonight we had a spontaneous towel fight :)

All the little guys got into it and we had a grand time :)

It lasted for about 10 minutes, before Dad said his famous phrase "Ok boys, that's enough." and it all stopped as fast as it started... :D
