Porch = Awesome

I must tell you about this porch that Jesse and I built. WE BUILT IT GOOD!
It's all, like, level and sturdy and stuff. We had no previous building experience, but we figured it out by copying the existing porch (but made it longer and wider and way more awesome). Honestly, we are fairly surprised by the good result. We even got along the whole time.
I don't have a good 'before' picture, because Jesse rudely tore it down while I was at the park with the children. I was pretty upset about that, having been fantasizing for weeks about dealing some round-house kicks to it's rotten railings. Maybe it's better I didn't get to do that.




In other news:
I called Violet a "sweet pea" this morning. She replied "don't call me sweet pea, Nana calls me sweet pea".
"What should I call you then?"
"Meat pea".
