These pictures are so out of order and I so don't care! Sorry...3 blog posts in one night is enough to make me not care! I was scatter-brained the whole day anyways with everything going on, so it is fitting!
7:30 - The construction workers show up, despite the severe thunderstorms from the night before and the 80% chance of severe thunderstorms that day. Troopers!
We ended up lucking out with the weather. It was beautiful! Humid, but beautiful! I had to come back from the Crawfish boil and put shorts on and I got sunburned!
6:45 - Finished product of the deck.
7:00pm - Tornado sirens going off. Just after the deck was finished.
Noon-5ish - Mandy and Robert's (our neighbors) Crawfish Boil for Pets for Vets. Have I mentioned we love our neighborhood? Everyone has so much fun together and we always have something fun going on. The kiddos are in their undies because they decided to break out the slip-n-slide.
I was a crawfish virgin. Still haven't decided what I think.
7:00am - Neighborhood Gage Sale. I can't sell the chair, so Duke decides he's going to make it his bed.
Duke stayed out front with me during the garage sale while the men tended to the deck. Only it was a fight to get the wood everytime they came to the driveway because Duke thought it was his bed too!
Duke loves people! Men he would raise his head for, maybe. Women, he's wag his tail for, definitely. Children, he would shake his whole body for!
As the Crawfish Boil boiled down (haha - pun intended), some of the neighbors decided the after party was at our house. We hung out on the deck while the sirens warned us of upcoming tornadoes. Smart, huh? When the hail came, we decided it might be time for people to go home. Dustin drove the neighbors home and I rounded up the kiddos into the bathroom and assumed the position.
What a whirlwind of a Saturday!!!!
More pics of the deck to come!
