Thank You Grandma!

Mitch and Erik got most of the swing set built today, and it looks awesome (thanks again for helping, Erik!)! The boys and the next door neighbor boy, Nathan, already started to break it in this evening. They really seem to love it, and I'm sure they're going to enjoy it for a very long time. I really want to say a heartfelt thank you on behalf of all of us to Grandma Carol (and late Great Grandma Claire) for pitching in to help us buy this for the little munchkins. It most definitely makes our backyard feel more complete, and the boys are going to have many adventures playing in their clubhouse.

The boys had a long day of being cooped up indoors, but we had cousin Stella and Hattie here to help keep them occupied. Sawyer really wanted to go out there and help Daddy and "Aiwick," and he kept asking every five minutes if he could go outside, but all-in-all he did really well with repeatedly being told "not yet, sweetie." S&S both had strange naps today since we were all off schedule from last night (Sawyer went down at 4:30 and Sutton slept in the morning and then again for about 45 miuntes at 6:00), so we just now got Sawyer to bed at almost 9:30 after watching a little Mickey Mouse Clubhouse. I'm thouroughly exhausted (and still have work to do tonight!), so here's a couple of pictures to do the talking for me. It was hard to get a good shot since the sun was setting right behind the swingset, but I think the grin on Sawyer's face still says it all.
