Our big news for the weekend is actually pretty old news these days - we moved more rocks! We'll be doing that for quite a while, so might as well get used to it. Since my arm is still not 100%, our friend Daniel Diliberto came to help for the afternoon. Here are the 2 piles we moved on Saturday:

Our other undertaking was patching the plastic on the greenhouse where Jeremy accidentally put a ladder through it. Well, he put a small corner of a ladder through it - it was about a half dollar size hole. The problem was how to reach it to patch it from the inside and the outside. Difficult situations make for creative solutions, right? We took a board and padded both ends of it (so they wouldn't make more holes), then placed it across 2 of the greenhouse hoops. The extension ladder then rested on the board so that Jeremy could climb up and patch the hole. From the inside, it was much simpler. We just used our 8' regular ladder. All in all, it took about 20 minutes with no drama at all.
Jacob is holding one end of the board so that it doesn't fall out from under the ladder dumping Jeremy through the plastic and into the greenhouse.
A look from below at the patch going on. The hand is Jeremy's as he smooths the gaffer's tape over the hole.
We also took some time to visit with friends and play games with the kids. It was a wonderful weekend - if only it could keep going!
