Shingles on the Roof!

It's been a hard week for Derrick and the different guys who have come to help shingle our roof. They've done a great job, don't you think? We LOVE the color we picked out (Burnt Sienna) and hope we love our siding color as much (Champange). They aim to start siding this next week.

For this next picture of the back of our house, picture a bright yellow ladder leaned against the roof and a TWO-YEAR-OLD making his way up to the PEAK! Oh, yes, it happened!! I was down there with the boys trying to clean up. I had just realized Nathanael was out of my sight, and I was headed out and around to look for him when I heard Derrick holler for me. He and Tim were on the front side shingling, and when Derrick heard a familiar voice sounding oddly close he turned around to see Nathanael standing at the peak!! We are amazed (and THANKFUL) that he didn't slip or fall. Needless to say, if we ever take both boys down there again, we will have to conduct a full-house safety inspection before he gets loose. Stinker!!
