Walls!

This weekend was a biggie as far as our house goes, there are now some walls in the basement! On Saturday we had a crowd- Dad, Zach, Ceddy, Uncle Marshall, Uncle Mark, Ryan, and Marquiz all worked their butts off and laid block on the basement. Zach was the "mudd man", Dad and Uncle Mark/Marshall did the laying, and Ceddy, Mark and Ryan did the grunt work, hauling block and brick down to the level of the basement. Gabriel even got to help and loved having everyone there to play with! Mom helped me out with the kiddos and with keeping everyone fed (yummy Mt Pleasant barbecue). I even did a little manual labor myself, and I have the blisters to prove it! Thank you to everyone, we really appreciate it. It is so cool because now you can really see what things are going to look like!

Everyone relaxing after a hard day's work

This week is going to be wilder and crazier than normal! Cedric had an exam today, then has clinical Tuesday and Wednesday. He is usually up most of the night on Wednesdays. I am heading to Raleigh for a work conference early on Wednesday, then will be returning late Friday afternoon. So Izzie and Gaby are staying with mom and dad Wednesday night and Thursday during the day, thank you mom for taking a day off to help us out...Friday night we have a fun Halloween party to go to with Nicole and Jackson. Saturday we will be working on the house again then having a little bonfire later on that night. Gabriel has been begging to roast hot dogs, so that is what we are going to do! Sunday will be a day of much needed REST, then Halloween is Monday so we will be out trick or treating. That makes me tired just typing all that!
