The Shed...

Ever since moving here Greg has been planning on putting a shed in the backyard to hold all his tools and clear up the garage for much needed car parking space...and he decided to get started this weekend. Now, this is not just some TuffShed that someone drops off and builds for you...he is building it FROM SCRATCH!!! Which meant a 3 hour shopping trip at Home Depot last Saturday for all the wood, and another 1-1/2 hours last night for last minute wood and other accessories.
So, this morning the Elders from our ward came over and my brother came over to help him start. They started with the base and are working on the sides as I type, here are some pictures of their work this morning.

Here is the base from above on the foundation for the shed

And here is the base with the floorboards nailed on...yes, they got to use a nail gun to put it on!

Lastly, here are Greg and David working on the first wall...still getting to use the nail gun...

So, I will post some more pictures when they have the foundation for the walls up...until then I am going to feed Freddie and finish watching iCarly (Karyl is playing with her toys and hasn't noticed Spongebob was over yet!!).

What a big project! That is awesome that he is doing it himself - well with some help, but still none the less!
