Making All Things New

Happy Easter from Tara!

Easter is my favorite holiday and traditionally a celebration of Christ making all things new. We certainly are experts here at Tara with renewing things, aren't we? So, what better thing to do today than to get a whole new roof!

The boys showed up (remember our trusty pals Freddie and Cesar? They brought friends!) about 7am. Welcome happy morning, indeed! By the time we arrived home from church, they had torn the old roof off and put down tar paper. Unfortunately, my mind was busy with Easter baskets and deviled eggs, and I neglected to take pictures of the progress until about 4pm...




As my 7 year-old said, "Those men are working hard!"



Oooh it looks good already!




But oh the trash to clean up!

While they may have gotten an early start, as I type this it is nearing 8pm and they're still hard at work. As Rhett surveyed the progress earlier this evening, he decided he'd better pitch it- and it seems they needed him!


Rhett and Freddie strike a pose...


And now it's too dark outside to get a picture of the finished product, but just wait. Tomorrow, friends!

Happy, happy Easter!
