Field Day fun!
It was a perfect day!
Two houses being built…
Funny story. I was out walking Arlo on Monday morning and decided to stop by the new house. When I got close I noticed there was a lot of activity going on and discovered that they were working on our house and the show house at the same time. At our house there were two guys in sweaty t-shirts banging with hammers on the wood frame around the foundation (they were removing the framing). At the show house there were six guys, wearing clean jeans, white t-shirts, and OSHA safety belts. They were posting for a picture of them (three of them together!) measuring with a chalk line. One guy had a camera, and another guy had a broom!! Sweeping up the foundation. I literally laughed out loud. Cleanest job site ever!
That was Monday. Today Eve and I stopped by after school and found this:
We also found Alan there talking to a guy from SunCommon. Alan’s dream is being realized. There will be solar panels on our house! :)
He also spoke with the builder before we got there and the builder said they would be pouring the rest of the foundation early next week. They have to finish the framing on the show house and get it weatherized before they can do the framing on our house. It won’t be too long though!
Sunny weekend
We had a lovely sunny weekend. On Saturday Eve had her Girl Scout pinning ceremony. She’s still a Girl Scout, but now with more pins and badges!
Then Sarah came to sleep over afterwards. This morning they woke up at 5am asking to go swimming. Wheee!! We decided to hit up our old favorite, Lake Pineo, before they officially open next weekend and start excluding non-association members. :/
It was a beautiful day!
Then we got lunch as the Quechee Snack Bar (deep fried everything!) and washed it all down with some ice cream. Then home for an afternoon on the computers. :) Happy Sunday. I’d like to say Happy Summer Vacation, but alas, four more days.
New house update
The poured the footers (I think that’s what it’s called!) the other day. We got there just in time to see them cleaning the cement mixer and putting the rebar in.
Today we had our friend in the car so we stopped by to show her the new house. Eve and I explained in great detail how the girls would get back and forth to one another’s houses after we move. Right now it’s a short jaunt down the street, but this fall they will have to go around a few corners. I reassured them that it would be ok, but they are still concerned because they won’t be able to see each others houses. It’s nice to have good friends just down the street. <3
I wonder what comes next. :)
Middle School Spring Concert
I never imagined I would be spending as much time watching my children perform as I have been this spring! Concerts and plays and spelling bees and plays, oh my!
Lex had his spring concert this week. The band was great and I always love watching him on percussion. The middle school has a fun jazz band too and Lex decided he would join that next year.
