When I Grow Up I Don't Want To Be....

Last weekend Russ and I went to help his parents work on their new house. Russ' father works for a construction/digging company so he is doing some of the work with the help of his sons. This weekend they knocked all the pins out of the forms so next week they can take the forms down. (Forms are put up to hold the cement until it dries, kinda like a mold for the walls) Kristin, Kim and I were responsible for picking up all the pins that they knocked all over the ground. I thought I could help take down a board that was much taller than I was and when we picked it up a couple pieces of cement fell right onto my head. I guess that will teach me to go to a construction site without a hard hat. It was a lot of work although I think the worst is till a head of them but it will be a beautiful house when it is all done.
