"We're" Building a Deck

We've been busy the last few weeks. Currently this is what our back yard looks like.The husband is building a deck for us and I keep the children happy and make sure he has time to build a deck. I'm ready for it to be done so we can build up the back fence with dirt to keep parts of our yard from flooding this spring. The husband will be glad to be done with it so he can finally sleep again. He keeps himself awake thinking about the number of cuts, bolts, and steps he needs to do to finish the deck.
So for now, there is a nice big pile of mud in our yard.. The two year old thinks that is unfortunate that we have such a big pile of mud and there are no pigs to enjoy it. He climbs on top of it, shakes his head, and says in a very sad voice, "No pigs." If there are not pigs in our life, at least the deck is coming along. I'll post more pictures when the husband has finished the pergola.For now we just are enjoying running across it.
