Friday started out just fine. I rushed out to the house at 7am to finish the 2 newels my Dad would need for the weekend. Then I came back to the Lincoln house and that's where the problems started. I was locked out of the house. As in sitting on the front step for 45 minutes waiting for the locksmith locked out. Our deadbolt broke again. Yep, again. We just had it fixed (they are too cheap to replace the darn thing) the prior week. I waited for the locksmith, waited for him to fix it and made it to work by 11. It was a rough morning.
Then Saturday arrived. It arrived with a nice suprise. Not only was Joan having a garage sale so we had to have our garage cleaned out (we thought she'd sell our stuff) but we had a flat tire! It took us an hour to change the tire due to a variety of issues. It was a rough start to an early morning.
We made it to Bennet at 9:30 with our fresh new tire.
Luckily, my Dad was already there with reinforcements. My Mom was working and apparently did not have time to make breakfast so Dad had breakfast to go :)
The weekend did get better though. Dad diligently worked on the flooring and installed one of my beautiful newels.
I love how the flooring on the stairs looks! That got me excited when I emerged from the basement.
Dave spent the weekend working on tile. 
He got all of the tile in the sunroom done. I'm hoping he'll grout it this weekend so we can officially call a room done. Ok, not done as the woodwork isn't ready, but done enough to move in.
Sunday morning we met one of our new neighbors. Our first snake...
You had better believe I made Dave get on the ground for these photos. There was no way I was sticking my face at that snake's level. The general consensus around here was that it was a bull snake. I'm sure we'll see plenty more of them.
