"How much would it have cost to have them build it for you?"

Happy Father's Day Weekend! What did we get my dad? The opportunity to drive 380 miles and spend 12 hours building a new swing/play set for the girls in our backyard! (Note - Don't ever exchange gifts with us!) It was a lot of hard work, but the girls really liked it a lot! Here a few pictures.....

Papa gives Grace the tool she'll need in her job as project "foreman"......
......her hands "cuffed" so she can't get in any trouble....... Grace helps Papa measure.....she got to hand him the square and made sure he had his "distructions" (a blend of directions and instructions.....and it sounds appropriate too).....
Grace hanging out on the deck tower after that part was built......
Posing with the monkey rings.....
Alison gets her first taste of the new toddler swing.......

I know where these guys will be all summer.....
Ali's legs just kept "bicycling".....
A close-up of the joy......
