Memorial Day Weekend

This weekend was nice for us. We were able to spend time together and get other things done also. On Saturday I was able to repair the rest of the roof. We have a few places where individual shingles have either broken or came off. I spent more time than I should up on the roof as I have a test less than a week away, but I feel better knowing that it is done and there isn't anymore tar paper showing. There is a spot on the roof I might redo. When I initially tried to fix the roof I had absolutely no clue what I was doing. I still don't know much, but at least my eyes are accustomed to how the shingles are supposed to lay. I don't think I will have any problems with leaks right away, but it bothers me it wasn't done better. I have other things to worry about. Heather was able to get a lot of laundry done and is trying to get better so she can have gall bladder surgery the first week in June. Christian is just a little character. He always wants to be on his feet. Even tonight as we tried to bathe him, he refused to sit down. He would push back again me as I held him and stand up. It took both of us to bathe him. In thinking about the poll we had a while back on our blog, I believe that Christian will likely walk by 1o months. If he already puts that much weight on his legs now, I don't think he will have any trouble walking by that time. We are the ones who are going to have trouble. Heather is going to be way tired chasing after this little squirt. Who knows maybe something will happen and Christian won't walk that young, which could be a real blessing. Yesterday, on Sunday we went and saw some of the graves of family and also one of my best friends growing up. Because we are concerned with security we elected not to post the pics of the family graves, but I did want to post the pictures of Caleb's grave because there no inherent link between us . The oddest thing about the whole matter is that Heather's deceased family and Caleb are buried in the same graveyard though Heather and I grew up almost 300 miles away.
