Missouri Part II

A Girl with her Papa (yes she posed herself)

Someone needs to teach this girl how to eat a taco!!

So much to do in the backyard, and the shade was awesome.

They were constantly dragging Papa Dude around getting him to play with them.

The Deck

Before we got to Missouri, Jason asked if Kenney would be willing to help him install a new deck.  Kenney was happy to help out with a project.  However it was a last minute idea and some of the parts needed to fully complete the deck were on back order.  We didn't see it all the way done, but they made some great progress.

The old deck being hauled away before we got there.

New supplies arriving.

All prepped and ready for new decking.

Thankfully the base of the deck was still in really good condition.

Posts set and boards ready to be screwed down.

All boards evenly spaced and screwed in.  There were some tricky cuts and boards that weren't straight, but they did a great job!  It looked great and felt super sturdy when they finished.

So much better than the old deck.

We were bummed some of the parts were on back order and we couldn't see the railing go up, but Kenney was able to help with a big portion of it.

Papa Dude playing with fire to show us how he planned on treating the wood.

I think he just wanted to show off!!
