First Lesson in Roofing

I was beaming with pride tonight when my children got their first roofing lesson!  As many of you know, the Peterson work-ethic is pretty strong. Truly one of my favorite things is to watch Kevin doing some sort of construction project.  I love how self-sufficient, productive, and well, lets face it, manly Kevin is when he builds, fixes, etc.  I would absolutely love for my boys to turn out as handy as their dad. So tonight, was step one in roofing—getting on the roof! 

Bodie was a bit more confident on the ladder and once he got to the roof, he seemed as comfortable there as sitting in the living room.

I think he would have sat there all day having a conversation if we had let him.

But for safety, we made the boys take turns…

Soren was a little nervous on the ladder, but once he was up, he too was quite comfortable and VERY proud!

They even had Kevin show them his comfort on roofs…

And the views…Well, they speak for themselves…

So, in ten years, if you need your roof done, I think the Peterson Power Tools will be at your service!
