Deck progress

So, our deck has made some progress in the last 6 months.  The first two are of the initial clean-up.  (It was really, really cold outside!)

 Then came the fixing of the house, putting on soffit and fascia.  (I don't have a clue if those are spelled right.)

 The kids (mostly Isaac) were big helpers.

Then fast forward to now, and we are finally getting some of it taken apart.  Isaac was a huge help to Dad, taking boards to the pile. 

 Emily worked on digging up some weeds on the other side. 

 We now have a dirt pit where the deck was.  Plus we found all sorts of treasures under there. 

 This is the pile of wood that has come from this endeavor.  Anyone need some wood?

 

In the next few weeks we will be taking out the rest of the deck, tilling up the whole yard to prepare for planting grass in the fall.  It will be a big undertaking, but we will have help.  Brandon's parents are going to come out and help us while they are here.  (Thankfully)  I'm excited to have some progress!
