Joe's project

No Michael is not the project... just a happy baby.


Hard at work in the 90 degree weather!


Can you guess what he's building yet? Yes that's our grill
in the background. It was our Valentines Day gift to each other.


Almost done just need to glue and nail the top. (Anyone need
a microwave? It's the start of our yard sale pile). The shelving is
on the left that Joe purchased.


Finished project with peg board hung too!


Last week Joe decided he wanted to organize the garage. I told him we could do this if we sold a car or found some way to save a little money. So he came up with the idea to sell his gun that he has owned since he was a police officer in GA. He pawned it and made $275. He bought a storage shelf with part of the money and fit most of our things on it. He has been talking of making us a deck in our backyard. It would be nice to barbecue in the back and not in the front, where all the neighbors see us. So we went on a shopping spree with the rest of the cash! Well I shouldn't say WE because it's not my kind of shopping, but I was there. We loaded up a cart at Lowe's with a table saw and a few other little things. This weekend Joe decided he wanted to build a workbench. I decided this would be good practice before the deck. He was outside in the garage pretty much all day on Saturday building this. It turned out great. I'm actually quite surprised by how sturdy it is. The mask he's wearing is actually a cap that he'd use for his hair while wearing his helmet for his motorcycle. I came up with this idea when he said he needed something to cover his face. It'll work for now, but I think he's going to bring home a mask tomorrow from work. Good Job Honey! I also included a picture I took of Michael last week while feeding him rice cereal. He loves his highchair! You can see he's enjoying himself.
