Congratulations. Lil girls are the best, Mine has me wrapped around her finger. The other day she was calling me from across the house and I came in there and she was just covering her eyes while laughing her ass off. Wanted to play hide and seek with me. Its adorable. Enjoy these younger years brother, get plenty of pictures and videos. Congrats again bud.

unfortunately the guy had no choice, new regulations have come into place. he had to do his driveway before he could begin construction of his house, its for ‘firefighters access’.. load of shit if u ask me as we drove on a dirt road (public) to get to his property.. anyway $90,000’s is the cost. pour the last bit tomorrow as we have had bad weather
