It's Memorial Day Weekend and phase 2 of Monster Garage is well underway. (See here and here for the first installments.) The mission: drywall. After Friday's work, 99% of the ceiling is covered and we're looking forward to getting all the walls covered tomorrow. I have to say thank god that Rachel's father, Ron, is here to help us through this. His knowledge has been even more indispensable than his wonderful toys.. err... tools. We even got the honor of breaking in the new Smack Family Memorial Firepit during and after supper. It's much better than any old copper firepit. Ok, enough talk, on to the photos.

Queen Venus goes for a ride in LeAnna's papoose Friday morning as work started on the drywalling.

It takes Nathan a few minutes (ok, 20) to figure out that the newly installed peep hole only works one way as he stands in front of the new front door.

Nathan and Rachael's dad, Ron, put their heads together while working on the landing.

Rachael looks up at Nathan as he takes a break from drywalling up on the balcony.

Rachael's dad, Ron stretches out next to the twirling embers from the fire in the "Official Smack Family Firepit" while taking a break after supper.

The radiant Candice gets her marshmallow perilously close to the inferno-on-a-stick that LeAnna is wielding.
