My husband was up at 6am and raring to go...Today we were pouring the concrete slab around the waterwell...Michael and I were a bit sleepy so we slept until 7am and then headed down to the property to help, lol... My Father in law came to help. He is pretty darn good with concrete and showed us how it was done!! I am so glad he came as I am not experienced in concrete at all and well Fred he kind of knows how to do it but not as good as his dad!
Smoothing it out...
I couldn't resist this photo, lol...it is an erect dayflower and was at my feet...Yes I was distracted from the work at hand...Oops!
Now back to the slab...almost done.
I think Michael was fix'in to swim in our tank, lol...We had to use it for water for the concrete and Michael soo wanted to get in it but it was pretty darn cold...The tanks other use is our swimming pool on really HOT days and today would have qualified if we hadn't had work to do...
it reached 100 F.
hmmm...you don't say?
Naaw it can't be....
Give me a break!!!
LOL....do you see what I have to put up with everyday...do you see those looks!! Isn't he cute and funny...good thing he doesn't read or look at my blog!!
A peacock butterfly, one of my favorites! See I was working at taking beautiful photos for y'all to enjoy!! LOL...
We had to wait for the concrete to set a bit before we could finish it up...So I suggested we all go fishing at the creek and everyone agreed, Yea!!
Michael was just thrilled to go fishing with Daddy and Grandpocka!! I love that photo above as they both have their rubber boots on and fishing poles in hand...Off they go to catch that WHOPPER of a fish!!
I was even nice enough to let Grandpocka fish in my fishing hole...He was aiming for one of the giant catfish or bass but no luck! He did catch quiet a few bluegill and sunfish and was enjoying himself...A nice break from working concrete I think!
I was just tickled when this little guy landed in the brush on the other side of the creek. He is a Green Kingfisher. I've seen them fly up and down the creek but they've never stopped near enough for a photo. This isn't the greatest but I didn't want to get to close and scare him away...Fred did that for me, ugh!! MEN!!!
Fred even managed to catch a few fish too...
A little quality time between Father and Son!!
We finished up the slab but I couldn't get a photo as it is under a tarp for a few days...Michael was able to (with help) write his name the date and add handprints & footprints to it...Momma even got to put her name on it too...Follow up photos will follow next week.
We had a pretty busy day but enjoyed the time spent together and accomplished something too!!
He was having so much fun, jumping up and yelling as loud as he could!! One nice thing about living in the country, you can yell as LOUD as you want without disturbing the peace, lol!
It took some bribing from Momma to get this photo but I love my green eyed monster!! 
He had a splashing good time!!
