One day after work and school Justin and I decided to go to the lumber yard and have the lumber ordered and delivered. Within a couple of days, the lumber came and Justin and I surprised Drew by painting the first half of all the lumber. It of course didn’t take Drew too long when he knew he could use his nail gun!
