Heber/Snowflake

Friday, October 22, 2010 Me, David, Andrew, Sydney and Donovan drove up to Dewey and Dee's house in Heber. Steven, Angie and Spencer made it up there about 10 pm. We all got up around 6 am. Well, Steven and Dewey were the first ones up.

It was the funniest thing to see all of the carpenters plan and decide which way would be best (and safest) to put the trusses on Dewey's garage. Steven was the Foreman and he ended up on the top of the trusses all day.

The boys did discuss who had the best life insurance. :)


Dewey, Steven, Spencer (Ray), Donald, Mark, David and Andrew all started working on the roof. Brian and Steven Birtcher were on their way over from Snowflake.


While the boys worked, Me Donovan and Syd went to Annette's house for the day. It only takes 30 minutes from Dewey's front drive to Annette's driveway.......at 70-75 mph. :)

Sarah and Nicolee had soccer games. It was FREEZING.






I know, I know, bad pic, but if I didn't put bad pictures of me there wouldn't be any pictures at all. Annette is trying to show Donovan how to take our picture.

After the soccer game we went strait to lunch at Eva's Mexican restaurant. Nic, Syd, Sarah and Donovan are all waiting for food.












When we were all done with lunch, Annette went to practice her harp and we all went to the corn maze. It was to hard for me. In the maze were 6-7 different shapes to find. Once you found the shape you punched the card to take up to the finish line for a prize.
Donovan will never let me forget that we did not find the "star" even though the owner of the maze tried to help me find it. I stink at corn mazes.

I made Nicolee, Sarah, Donovan and Sydney take their pictures before starting the maze.






We spent about an 1 and 1/2 at the corn maze and still didn't find all the shapes. I took the girls back to Annette's house and Donovan took advantage of having the trampoline all to himself.



I made Donovan get back in the car with me to go back to Dewey's house to see the progress on the roof. I also had to get David and Andrew so we could go to Annette's concert.












Steven is here on the trusses.

Donald and Mark are lifting the sheets of plywood to Steven and Brian

















Steven (Birtcher) and Andrew were lifting the sheets to Donald and Mark......Sorry Spencer I didn't get a picture of you helping but I know you did....










Steven and Brian on the almost finished West side of the roof. I think it was the west side. The other side didn't get finished today.




















Andrew, Spencer, Steven and Donovan. All the boys had to come help their dads.









We all drove back to Annette's house for Annette and Rachel's concert.

David and Donovan stayed home. Annette was so nervous about playing her harp. Yes, and she was concert master too. The concert was really good.












This is how Donovan's day ended. He was trying to wait for all of us to come home. Donovan said, "Grandma Chelle, we did lots of things today."
This was a fun day.
