Our Mothers Day present for my Mother

We built an arbor and planted red tables grapes on each side.  We are putting solar lights on the arch today.  Urie and his son Jerame put it together and yes they are Amish.  It LOOKS like my Father is working but as usual he is not he is just putting his two cents in.  But my Father did come up with some good ideas on the project.
