Labor(ers) of Love

Since you all have been wondering what I have been up to lately......
 (besides going crazy - that is the norm....duh)

Meet my favorite construction crew!


The Stig installing "my" *bad-ass* front door hardware
(the words *bad ass and kick ass were both used)

Oh and apparently anything that involves WORK on the house is "mine"

Examples: 

#1 - Installing MY new sewer line to the street
(all my dreams have come true now-HAHAHA!)


Yes that is Cambo operating a backhoe!
(and to think I thought him getting his Driver's permit next year was a scary thought.....)

#2 - Installing MY new gas/electrical lines to MY new kitchen island



My sweet lil baby girl Rylee is JACKHAMMERING!

I can honestly say that I am a little freaked out by the fact that she LOVED it.
(she will be the cutest orange-vest-wearer ever if she decides to do this for a living!) 

Oh, and Santa delivered my Christmas gift early
(it wouldnt fit under the Christmas tree)


Brown paper packages tied up with string......

THIS is definitely one of my favorite things!

A brand new HVAC unit - complete with Air Conditioning!!
(dont think I wont be turnin' that bad boy on when I am unpacking in the middle of winter - HA!)

This is a gift that keeps on giving....
Uncle Sam will be giving me a Christmas present again next April 15th.
(in the form of a $1500 rebate!) 


And with that 
I will leave you with a photo that cracks me up......


......DORKS
(but I love them!)
And they were installing MY new plumbing lines!
