5. Frame a wall in the bonus room...HECK YEAH...check!
That's right. John framed a wall in the bonus room this weekend. You are probably confused. The bonus room was framed when we moved here, but there is a corner space that was only framed half-way. We aren't sure what they were doing, but the AC guy is coming out this week to install the central heating and air unit and we needed the wall to be framed so he could mount everything. I have dreaded the process of getting the bonus room finished. I made John promise that he would have it done by the time football season rolled around for 2 reasons-1)It has got to be finished before we can begin the nursery and 2)John will be worthless on the weekends once football is here-and we will be in Auburn most of those weekends anyways. Two weeks ago an electrician came out and put in a phone line and cable outlet up there. I was relieved the process had started, but I did not think he would get a wall framed this weekend. John and Jamie went to Home Depot on Saturday morning to buy all necessary supplies which included a miter saw and a bunch of wood. He said he felt more manly just buying the saw...before he had even used it :) Against my better judgement, I left to run some errands just as he was getting started. To my surprise, he was almost finished when I got home. It took him about 2 hours to complete and I am most proud of him!! Who knew he was so handy!!

I am so impressed. My Jamie had a "manly" weekend too! He created more floor in our attic!! Now, we just need to find more yard, and our house is perfect! Happy day.
