DAHLBERG & DEVON

Last year we discovered that an exterior garage wall was rotting. We didn't have the cash to get it fixed, so it's just sat there in all of its rotten glory. Recently, however, we received a monetary gift intended to meet whatever needs we had at the moment. We contacted Erik, a friend who's a contractor, and he spent the last couple of days putting new siding on the rotten wall. Devon was intrigued by the process, so Erik had him come out to help off and on while he was here.

Erik let Devon whack away at a section of old siding that was going to be torn down. Pretty sure that was the highlight of Devon's week!

He also had to haul some wood out to the truck. Not as cool, but not every task can be as fun as being granted permission to be as destructive as possible.

Here they are, Mr. Dahlberg and Devon (with his cheesy posed smile, of course).

I'll end with some live footage of the best part of Devon's week.

Today I'm thankful for generous people, needs that get met, the chance to support a friend's business, and people who invest time in our kids.
