Cory's New House...

Yeah, yeah... Whatever. It's hot and I have a LOT going on! As I'm sure most other people who read my blog do... :) Anyway, Cory bought a house a month or so ago, we've been over a few times to help get it squared away, here are some pictures...

This is the main load bearing wall, the plumbers however decided to cut out 2 of the 3 top plates, and before I fixed it, those 2 x 4's were seriously bowed, corrected now though... I've worked with many plumbers though when I used to do construction, so it doesn't surprise me...

Kitchen/dining area... He bought a table for the space, but hasn't put it in yet.

His bedroom set from our house, we went over today and set it up in his spare bedroom. I told him, now that you have a spare room, expect guests!! :)

Front of the house...

Side view...

So anyway, there is my post, I got tired of seeing that Happy Independence Day thing... :( Anyway, we are busy as usual, working, school starts in two weeks, so all sorts of things going on. I'd post more, and probably will, but I am also trying to get that pool house done prior to winter, trying to fix the kids dirt bikes, finish crap around the house, working and just living life in general, it's all good though... :) I will perhaps try to post more, but no promises... ;)

Summer Fun...

My neighbor took Taylor horse back riding for her birthday, she LOVED it!!

Taylor and Mae. Of course now Taylor wants a horse... I wouldn't mind having one myself if I had room for one, but boarding is too expensive... Who knows... :)

A frequent activity for the kids, although I've never been out on it, I have been invited, but it seems like I'm always to busy with chores... :( Taylor driving the pontoon boat...

Tanner, obviously. Chance doesn't go out on it as much as Tanner and Taylor, Chance is like me, prefers to just stay home... :)

Swimming in the lake.

So everyone is enjoying the summer thus far, when not at the lake or White Water, there is our own pool to enjoy. Today though, we are going over to Cory's new house to finish up some work Carolyn and I are doing for him on it. I'll try to actually take a picture of it today... :)
