Over the big Memorial Day weekend, we headed to Pewaukee to help my Mom and Dad re-roof their house. Below should be (emphasis on the should I’ve never attempted this before) a time lapse video of the project. At the end of the movie you can see the shingles going up above the garage and over the porch they are brown so look close!  Notice, how the video ends before the roof is completed…

Sorry ’bout that guys…

I wasn’t actually on the roof though.

Ever.

Because I would hate that.

A lot.

Instead Sarah and I got to be the child watchers/ food prepers…

What I have learned about roofers is that they eat a lot and that they get really tired.

This is my Mom.

I think she is sleeping.

On her roof.

What I have learned about myself is that sometimes chasing after kids and trying to keep them from climbing ladders while making dinner for…counting on my fingers…oh man it was eleven if you count the babies, is not a lot fun even when doing it with your best friend!

But I’d still rather do that then climb around on a roof.

I mean really do they look like they had fun to you?
