Recognized for a Job Well Done

We received an award for the work we have been doing on the Safe and Sound bridge jobs for KTU.


Here is the article from their newsletter:



"Of all the contractors working statewide on the design-build
portion of the Safe & Sound Bridge Improvement Project, KTU
Constructors would like to recognize Boone Construction for the
MoDOT 554 Quality Contractor award for the first quarter of 2011.
Boone has done great job staying focused on producing high quality
bridges in multiple areas of Missouri. Boone has done this
by focusing on the basics of bridge construction to achieve the
highest level of client satisfaction. The crews are working mostly in
central and northern Missouri, facing a wide array of challenges
in those areas.
Boone Construction has several crews led by foremen Ron Wheeler,
Jim McBee, Troy Purdun and Russ Falconer working
under the general supervision of Randy Bowyer. Under the
direction of these foremen, every crew member is responsible for
knowing the requirements for the work and executing the plan
each day to meet contract requirements. By doing this, Boone
Construction has had minimal at-fault quality issues on the 544
program. Several great contenders were vying for this award
including Leath and Sons, Robertson Contractors and L. Krupp
Construction. But congratulations to Boone Construction for a
quality performance in the first quarter."

First Hair Cut EVER

Today, Beanie went with me to the salon to get her hair cut. It was the very first time she ever had it cut....AT ALL. I've never even cut gum out of it. To warm her up to the idea, we let her play with a manikin head. She combed it's hair while I got my hair cut.



Next, Terry combed Allia's hair out.




Look how long it is. Those curls at the bottom are her baby hairs.


Snip, snip, snip and it was over.




She was thrilled.





She posed for more photos.


AND, with the headband.





(Don't worry, I put a clipping of her curls in an envelope as a keepsake.)

Mommy is so happy that Allia finally likes this dress.
(I bought it months ago.)



Allia loves when Daddy tickes her.
