David got back from his two month trip to Florida on Monday (he is now officially a Medic). After sitting around Monday he decided that he wanted to do a project, so we agreed on re-doing the back deck. On Tuesday we went and got all of our supplies (wood and nails) and got to work. David did most of the pulling off the old boards by himself.
We hit a little snag when trying to take down the lattice work (as seen behind David in the above picture). While David was trying to take it down despite the ridiculous amount of nails they used on it, he sustained a minor injury (he hit himself in the head with the mallet). He probably could have used two stitches in it, but since he just got back from Medic school, he took care of the wound himself, and then took his saw to the lattice.

| I know what your thinking, Nathan is in his underwear again. Well, it is proving hard to keep him dressed. He takes his clothes off all the time. |

We were able to finish the deck in just four days, since all of the family helped out. Next, we are going to start on a bottom deck off the basement. Great job David, and sorry about your head.
