We got work to do. I tore down this pool and left an eyesore of a sandpit in the back yard, and with company coming soon, we just can't have that. We decided to try and make a patio out of it with rocks from around the yard. We are foolish kids.
It's coming along tho. Dave wanted to tear down the deck and redo the driveway and turn the house foundation 3 degrees to the east, but I tried to keep it simple. One job at a time. All the while Laura & her mother were inside fixin' us a delicious lunch and sorting thru baby clothes. We have 247 onesies for age 3-6 months. That's 2.7 onesies a day with no repeats.
I love deviled eggs.
Laura also learned how to make the famous Krupp strawberry preserves, a rite of passage, a tradition passed onto the daughters of the family upon their commitment to motherhood. Make a baby, feed it jelly.
I got back to work, laying large stone and moving dirt and digging holes and sweeping sand and lifting rocks. Due to its backbreaking nature I had to take more than a few breaks.
Laura prepared her favorite for dinner: MEAT! Pork steak & homemade potato fries. Sweet tea sealed the deal and I don't remember being quite so hungry in recent times.
The sun started going down and we decided a late night visit to Home Depot would be better than an early morning one. We went to get a few sheets of lattice and came out with two carts of flowers to plant. So much for a quick trip. No such thing when you're shopping with the Krupps.
