Thursday/Friday

Thursday morning the shingles for the house were delivered. They came on a truck with a crane, which meant we were outside watching the singles go up to the roof. Leslie was quite fascinated. They got the main part of the house done by about 1:30, which was great because it started to sprinkle. Luckily that's all we got, but the contractor came back later that night to cover the one side of the garage that was still only papered just in case rain came over night.


Friday morning they were back, and got the rest of the roof done by 4. They did a good job, the contractor just has a few more extras that we asked him to take care of next week.

David's parents arrived Thursday night, so Friday we all went to gymnastics and then out for lunch. While having lunch we got the see President Bush's motorcade pass by. He was going to a fundraiser for a senate candidate in Peoria. It was neat to see.
