i'm so tired of Extreme Home Makeover Day 3

i think i have seen all i want to see of this house. but here's what i have. these are all from saturday

10am

this is one of the carpenters rib (so called b/c when he was little he liked frogs so much that everyone called him ribbet instead of robert and then it got shortened to rib.) he was so cute and very nice to everyone!


we have a children's inflatable play place here called monkey joe's. and my monkey loves it! they are one of the sponsors of the house and monkey joe showed up today. that was my monkey's favorite thing of this whole week!

noonish



2:00

i found out from one of our neighbors that if you lived in the neighborhood you could take advantage of the food and things they were providing for the workers. i really didn't want any food but they did have free icee's!! so we went and got 2 of those.


about 5:00 i had had all i could take. i was sunburnt, sweaty and oh so tired. so we took some last pix and headed home.

this is the path through the yard i'm sure it's only going to get worse!

these are some of the durn people that made the path through the yard.

this is one of the 2 tents set up for the workers. this one has the icees!!

and here is the house as we left.

i really don't want to go back. but then again i do. i'm like a junkie with his fix. "i can do without it! i don't need it!" anyway ty never showed up yesterday and is supposed to be there today. maybe i'll stop by for an icee......

I bet it is getting old, but I can totally see you not wanting to miss the possible excitement! Get Ty's autograph for me :)

Wow, wonder how he manages to do his secret room all in one day, huh?

it'll be worth it to go back for the free icees :)

the house looks Really out of place in that neighborhood. i wonder what their immediate neighbors think.

blog author said...

in fact, i wonder what kind of compensation the immediate neighbors got for having to deal with all that noise and ppl traipsing thru their yard for the last 5 or 6 days....

kay said...

none. they get no compensation. they offered to put anyone up in a hotel but everyone declined. they will however make their yard look just like it was (or better) than before they arrived.

very cool to watch it. but it's hot, and steamy. and really. free icee's only last so long. BUT i wouldn't want to miss out on too much either.

I know I would be the same way...I'd want to see as much as possible, but it would get old.

Love that even though you are sick of it, you still scheme to see Ty!! :)
