Visitors and Drywall

We were so lucky to have visitors this past week. My dad and brother stopped by to see us on their way back from Helena and my friend Shelly and Jesse came up to see us for a night! We had so much fun and miss everyone already. We also had our friends Brain and Brittany stop by for a night on their way home to Colorado! Noone even complained about having to stay in our purple house! Speaking of the house....we've still been working hard on the yard and basement! We planted six trees and removed 500 pounds of lava rock from the yard! It still looks like a mess but continues to get better everyday. We also have two new egress windows in the basement and thanks to my dad and brother....the basement has drywall!!! My brother also talked Russ into wiring the basement with surround sound......funny since we don't even have a t.v. or stereo!
The backhoe and truck full of drywall that we got into the basement through the giant hole we cut for the egress window!

Cutting down all the bushes in the backyard!

The hole we dug for the egress window! We did this one with a shovel (we learned not to do the other window this way.......way too much work!)


The rocks that came out of the hole we dug


My dad and david putting up drywall




Cohen.....he didnt make a peep the entire time he stayed with us! Such a good little boy!'

Killian......he was so sweet! He remembered us right away and it was so fun seeing him again!

Drywall......I promise I helped BUT someone has to take pictures!
