Workin' on a Buildin'..

We have been pretty busy lately, working on the new shed.  (When I say we, I mean John working on the building, and me chasing Audrey around while she watches her Daddy work.)  It has been slow going, but aren't all things that way once you have children?  Here are a few pictures of the progress.


John rented an excavator and started cutting out the side of the bank.  He also had to cut in an entrance to the shed.   
John and Daddy set the posts one weekend.  During the weekday, John worked to get the boards up once Audrey went to bed, which meant working past dark using the truck lights. 

Can't resist a few Audrey shots.  We borrowed the neighbors tractor to spread the remaining gravel.
Building inspector, Audrey, making sure the job is done right!
Here, Daddy.  Let me help.

John, Will, and Robert worked all weekend putting up the trusses and starting the tin.  The following weekend, Charlie helped John put on the rest of the tin.  

So, that is where we are.  We still need sides, obviously, but at least the roof is on and we can store things out of the rain for now.   Thanks to all the workers!
