Building....again

We are getting ready to build another Watson house.  Again.  ..  ..  Maxx's Uncle Justin is getting ready to break ground on a beautiful new home in northern Idaho. (Well technically he has already "broken ground", but I am talking in terms of digging the foundation.)  How exciting!  I am still a little nauseous about the idea of building another house, with our house still so very fresh in my mind, but I am looking forward to help build this one for three reasons.  

1. building in the summertime

2. cooking, baking, or just plain feeding the boys

3. less stress for my immediate family, a lot less stress

I got to see the property for the first time yesterday.  Kyle took Maxx man and I out to see the progress and watch Justin push a big tree over with the dozer.  No matter how old boys get I find it fascinating how entertained they are by the simplest things.  Give two boys a bulldozer, a cable, and a very small chainsaw (sorry Rudy) and they giggle and smile like it is their first time ever playing with such wonders. 

We went out at five in the afternoon, planned on staying a half hour and drove away at about seven thirty.  The weather was semi-warm, Maxx ate lots of dirt, Kyle and Justin giggled like schoolgirls, a big tree (and another smaller one) are no longer growing, and I destroyed my clean Zumba shoes in the mud.  What a perfect afternoon.
