Busy, Busy!

I can't believe how busy life has been for us lately! Last Wednesday Brooks underwent orthoscopic knee surgery to repair a torn meniscus. The surgery went well and he took a week off of work to recover. He is still hobbling around with a swollen knee and in some pain but hopefully he will get a good follow-up from the doc on Monday. Since Brooks has been out of commission I have had to go into super mode and I have to admit I have been quite exhausted. This experience has just shown me how much we work together to get things done around here! On top of Brooks' surgery we also had a project started in the backyard. The retaining wall around the patio had been falling over for some time now so we finally bit the bullet and are having it replaced with a new rock wall.... Here is just some of the mess in our backyard right now.

Along with building a rock wall comes sand and lots of it! Houston has thoroughly enjoyed the big piles of sand and for hours has been entertained. He also has enjoyed looking out our bedroom window watching the men work.... he gets so excited and yells through the house, "Momma yook they fix it... hamma Momma hamma!!!!" ... The man doing the job has called him his little supervisor!


I'll have to post pictures of the finished product next week!
