Construction Begins!

Today we started building a wooden swingset climber in our backyard. Both sets of grandparents and Dan and I had talked about it before, so we are making it a family wide project instead of any of us trying to do it on our own. It is going to be so cool!

Dan and Dad started by building the sides.

Alison started her own hammering project on a log.

By the time the guys had the sides up,

Alison had started another building project...this time a fairy house complete with a pumpkin patch and a garden.

At the end of the day, Alison got to try out the play deck. Why can I see her putting on shows up here?

Stay tuned for more updates!

Ian absolutely loved watching the guys building. He cries when I vacuum, so I though he would be terrified of the saws and air compressor. Nope, not one bit, he loved them! Even when we came inside, everytime he heard them he would stop what he was doing and look outside to see what he was missing.
