On the Fence

Allen was back at work on the side fence again today. He had his helper by his side all morning. She had taken her hat off as the day got warmer, but when she noticed Allen had a pencil in his hat, she put hers right back on and asked for pencil of her own. Well, what if she needed to mark her measurements or something, you know? Lexi on the move. She must have realized she didn't have all of the tools she needed to work on her 2x4. Thank goodness! She found what she needed. She is totally at home outside with Allen's tools. She knows what she can and can't play with and helps herself to whatever she need to get her "jobs" done. The work is going so slowly. Because we have a number of other projects to get done, we might hire out the rest of the weld work for this fence. Allen can only be stretched so thin, you know?
Addie stayed inside. Her job is to look cute. She's very good at it.

Addie needs to get a raise because she's doing exceptionally well at her job!

The "tool man" and his "side kick" ... how cute! She's probably going to choose a very different career some day than most girls!

The kids are cute and the jobs look good...But only if those hats had 'U's on them instead of 'Y's...
