Quincy nails in the last of the boards on the new platform. Yesterday I built a rope bridge between the two platforms. I will get a pic and post it later.
I hung a tire swing for the boys last weekend. It was the best thing I have done so far - they have been on it constantly for the past week.
I am glad that they chose for me to hang it flat - it is much more fun to see them all on at once.
I put the slide on a few weeks ago. It is much more fun than the slide on their swingset. When I did this project the boys said "Wow, Mom, you are super strong - you carried the slide and all the tools on your tool belt at one time!" - Hey, I take any compliment I can right now!
We found this dead Rhinocerous Beetle in the tree and thought is was pretty cool.
The cake I made for the party. The rim of the hat was made with a giant sugar cookie but the rest is all cake. This did not make it entirely intact. We have to drive up a big steep hill to leave the house and the pumpkin was a bit too round and fell over. I was able to salvage all but the bottom half of the pumpkin. Most people had no idea that there was supposed to be a bottom so in the end it was not too bad.
The boys pose with the other kids at the party. They stood together so I was able to get a pic of the three of them. Nate is Tigger, Win a white Power Ranger and Quincy some scary guy.
