This was the first weekend of us being grounded.
Chris is on call as a Fire Warden every 3rd weekend. It starts in the morning on Friday and ends Monday morning. We arent allowed to leave the county and if he has to go anywhere he has to take his brush truck.. and Kennedys not allowed to ride in it since shes under 18. So we are going to get a lot of projects done at home!
Steve (Taylors dad) wanted him to build a ramp for his trailer so they can get Taylors side by side on and off. Chris got the steel and spent Friday cutting and welding it together.
There was a killer sale on pork roasts. I had my mom pick us up some. We got 24 lbs of bone in roasts for $24. They were in big 3 pack. We broke them down and vacuum sealed them individually
We had a little outdoor bbq Friday night. I made burgers on the grill and invited Taylor, Zack and Mom over for burgers. Taylors parents were out of town and Dad was at work.
Zack was running late.
Chris and Taylor were working on the ramps.
Mom, Kennedy and I had the chairs set out, burgers on the grill and the speakers set up outside. The weather was perfect. The big tree provided so much shade. We had just finished eating, Chris and Taylor were halfway through their food and Zack had just shown up when the pagers went off.
We all headed to the medical.
Zack and Mom and Kennedy stayed.
We came back and Zack had to leave to go check on the dogs. Kennedy wanted to go with him. Mom left to go home. Zack ended up having to do some work stuff and took a while to come back. Not long after Zack came back we were all watching tv and the pagers went off again for a good accident. Zack stayed on the couch and Kennedy was asleep. Chris, Taylor and I headed off for the accident.
Taylor and I ended up having to go to the hospital in the ambulance with them.
We know how to throw a bbq haha
Saturday Chris finished up the ramp. This is what the original looked like
and this is the one he built to match it. Steve wanted flat steel pieces added to bring more stability.
He also built lip pieces with tabs to set the ramps on
Him and Taylor spent the day welding the pieces on and grinding down spots.
I spent the day doing laundry and dishes, fletching arrows and sitting in the lawn chair NOT eating a milkshake and watching the boys
It was HOT out. Kennedy and I went in on the couch to watch a movie and fell asleep under the fabulous central air. Chris came inside after Taylor went home and fell asleep in his chair too. I guess we were all out cold. Todd came over and came inside and we didnt even notice. Then Chris got paged out on a grass fire. Him and Taylor went. I had dinner ready for the boys when they got back and Taylor couldnt resist the song of the couch afterwards.
I went outside and shot. Ive been trying to find the perfect arrows for my bow and Ive been shooting vaned 350s.. well after some playing around this weekend Ive found that feathered 400s shoot AMAZING out of my bow. Go figure!
His and hers
You know its summer time when this is at 5:46 AM
