What A Dad!


We were so thrilled to learn that Justin received an unexpected bonus at work and even more thrilled when he said he was going to spend part of it on a swing-set, "No if's, and's, or but's about it" in his words.

Since I'm becoming more immobile he thinks we need something in the backyard to keep these two busy children occupied. And guess what? I agree. He spent a few late nights and early mornings organizing parts and then spent all day yesterday (sun up until sun down) and finished it!

Of course his little helper made it happen too.



Like his ladder?



We woke the kids up extra early this morning so they could swing before Sarah went to school. You should have seen their faces!

Yea for Justin! Both the swing set and a bonus. The bonus is unheard of! I'm glad you have something to keep your tricycle motors busy.

woo fancy I know your kids will love that play house David spends hours in hours. I don't know how less than 20 sqft can captivate a child so much but it is great

I love bonuses! Free money! :o) The swing set looks great. I'm so glad Sarah and Spence will have a constant playground to keep them busy.
