Wits End?

The girls and I had a pretty good weekend, but I'll get in to that in a bit.  First, I want to talk about our deck.  I know our porch and deck will be amazing once we're done, but if Matt or I ever try to embark on such a large renovation again, please smack us.  We have been working on this house since we moved in.  Home renovations are hard as it is, throw in full time jobs, 2 kids, and no sleep and you're talking border line insanity and maximum stress.  I know Matt's ready for it to be done.  I'm ready to have my husband back.  We're at our wits end when it comes to this project.  While I'm on the topic I'll share some photos of the progress:

So that's where we are with the deck.  We'll get the framing inspection this week, if all goes well Matt can start laying the deck boards.

On to the girls.  Both girls have colds they're fighting and I got a touch of it as well, but overall we had a good weekend.

The girls painted.

And played in their new tent from Gammy.

Maddy had dance class.

Here she is putting her tap shoes in to the new bag Tammy got her.

Of course she had to have an outfit change prior to class, and guess what outfit she chose?!  The white and gold outfit...some things aren't worth arguing with her over...

After dance Riley (and Emma) came over to play.

It was so cute, the girls would run through the sprinkler...but Rileys version was running around the perimeter of the sprinkler so she didn't get sprayed...so cute!

Maddy laying out towels for her and Riley.

Yesterday we went to the park with Aunt Anna  (again Maddy is wearing her white and gold tutu outfit).

The girls helped Anna water her flowers.

Even Rosco played at the park (until they got mad at us for having him at the park and he had to go home).
