This is my husband in the middle of tearing out the old brick chimney in our ancient house. It was serving as our furnace exhaust system. And thankfully we decided to tear it out. The mortar in between the bricks was sand. Jarrod was plucking bricks off without much muscle needed. Scary. He thinks it will improve the quality of air also. It was a TON of work, but we got it done. GO TEAMWORK! Thanks to Aunt Audrey for watching all my kids for six hours, you are a great aunt to my kids. They just love you to pieces. It doesn't hurt she spoils them all rotten. We love you Auddie, Carley and Liam. They were all extremely enthusiastic about how much fun they had. Thanks to Mom and Dad for putting up with our motley crew for like three weekends now. I think we won't be needing hotel Kuchta anymore. It was a blast, and Dad whips up some mean waffles. Yum! Its such a special treat. I will miss it. Thanks to Molly for housing us for an afternoon, it get crazy with our clans together. And thank goodness her basketball hoop is up. The kids are ecstatic about it. Well just wanted to give a quick update. More to come.
