Gazebo Construction Begins!!

Dave has been planning on building a gazebo in our backyard for several months, and after looking at ideas, drawing up plans, and buying (a lot of) materials (including a new power saw that he is very excited about!!), he and my cousin, Nate, began working on it on Saturday! They were up on Friday night until 11 reviewing the plans, and then they were awake on Sat. morning at 6:30 a.m. It was so fun to see David so excited about this great project!!! They cleared the grass and laid the perimeter of the gazebo.
The guys worked until dark, but, unfortunatley, David got heat stroke very bad! He very rarely gets sick, but when he does, it's very dramatic. (Actually, I'm probably the one who is dramatic as I try to help him.) When we called my mom to ask her what to do for his symptoms, she screamed, "Call 911!!"--which we didn't do. We do appreciate all your medical advice though, Mom, and we do usually do what you recommend.
Lots of water, chicken bullion, popsicles, and a good night's sleep helped David feel much better.

Here's my favorite pic from the day!
