What Have the Dischers Been Up To??? (Part 2)

Working on The House And Yard.

Mama and one of her best friends - - BLEACH!!!

Mama going after Sarah (Joking of course) after Sarah makes a smart remark...

*Sigh* Sarah and her big mouth!

Going through things we haven't seen in a very long time!

This was one big spider that came after me! But, since I love this kind of spider, instead of being smashed or finished by some other means, he was allowed to pose for a picture.

Emma enjoying watching everyone else work.

Finding my long-lost guitar pick. A TREASURE!!!!!!! :)

We discover another of Grace's creative but never finished artistic works.

(It was Indian bead work.)

~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~

~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~

"Raft! Raft!"

Emma is very persistant about keeping her raft inflated.

Wow...all the stuff we drug out of the laundry room before we organized it.

"Why should we organize it that way? It makes more sense..."

One of the many discussions between several bossy girls.

A well worn broom.

Don't throw THAT treasure away!

"HEY! I did this when I was like 12!"

~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~

Pete our electrical man.

We are making progress!!

Our building materials - all organized and pretty!

The happy moving crew - before tile

"Pete, it'll fall!"

"Naw...it'll be fine!"

(There is a long story behind this one...and it ended with an "OOPS")

Daddy inspects the flooring

~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~

"Mr. Special" is happy.

The cement board is down

And Daddy is showing us how to tile.

Um.....

Happy shirt number one

Happy shirt number two.

We had fun. :)

Ah! The tile is down!

Discher Girls' Painting Crew

"I'm going to get you!"

"NO!!!!"

"Kitty! Don't you DARE!"

At this point, Sarah tripped since she didn't have eyes in the back of her head.

Peace.

Or...maybe not.

Papa doing the grout.

Papa finishing the shelving

RANDOM YARD WORK

~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~

~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~

~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~

Overcome with fatigue...

Slowly fading away...

"THUD"

(Taps...) (This is the "opossum pose")

A flower for the fallen

We did a better pose than Amanda (nah nah nah nah nah)

A happy caterpillar killer.

Sarah and Em picking Sarah's garden

Another happy caterpillar killer.

One of the doomed...

Water - a clear lifegiving substance, a liquid often falling from the sky as rain, and sometimes from a little man-made metal or plastic tool called a sprinkler. This picture is a working model of the latter, taken at the Discher garden.

GREENS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sweet workers!

And another sweet cheerful worker.

As we were painting, we had a spill...oops...

And of course I couldn't possibly work without good ol' Gospel 90.3! :)

The finished, painted shelves!

Inside, we have been decluttering as well...

"Empty shelves and empty wa--lls...Empty boxes for the packing....Empty shelves and empty wa--lls, where our things will never go..." (dramatic music playing...)

(Yea, it was a sorry take off from Les Miserables' Empty chairs and Empty Tables, but I tried....)

So ends Part 2 of...
