hello Monday!
hello lovelies!
Mr D staining yesterday morning.
the building of our deck is complete!
Michael did a fabulous job!
he was assisted by his close friend Tom.
it took three weekends and ten nights of "after work 'til dark"!
( we lost one Saturday to rainfall. )
i kept the family room fridge loaded with Rock Stars, diet cokes, water and energy bars.
we provided home cooking and delivered the best of our area's take out!
Seattle's Top Pot Donuts
Tacoma's renowned Magic Sandwich Maker ( MSM )
Federal Way's Burger Express
and
Gyros from our neighborhood Mediterranean Gyro Grill.
Mr D said he was glad that the work was complete, but he was going to
miss having the daily activity his work buddies around the house.
the guy's had many bonding moments.

( dad's can be empty nester's too! )
what a work party it was!
a little more staining and a day of backyard cleanup lies ahead.
the lawn took a toll with the building activity and heat.
there are piles of moved dirt to be sifted in the garden area.

this morning the mist has returned.
the view and the atmosphere are much different than yesterday.
Mr D is back at work as i write.
we return to routine...until next Saturday, when Holland Grace plays
in her very first soccer match! for those of you that have been visiting
34th street since before her birth...doesn't it seem like yesterday?
coincidentally, her team is the COUGARS!
GO COUGS!
GO HOLLAND!
GO LIFE!
withLove!
