Stimulating the economy

In the beginning....(nathan-"oh man, sheesh, call in the troops!")

We decided it was our American duty to help the economy out of this recession. We bought the big play structure at Costco for our little yard. I think it sort of looks like a yacht in a pond. The kids and neighbors love it!

Nathan slaved on it for about 3 days. The kids 'helped'. Corbie found some of the little screws and help to scatter them across the lawn. So helpful! Tanner helped to build the rock wall and Savannah contributed by playing with Corbie so we could work.

After it was finished YES! we then had to seal it from the rain/sprinklers. That is where I came in. Nathan had to take over because I had a mutual activity. He did a huge body spread on the top of the roof to reach the far corner. (have to seal everything right?) I am thinking he is pretty much lucky he did not crash right down on his head!


We have big plans for sleep outs in our fort, Savannah and neighbor girls play serious "house" in it and Tanner and friends play pirates. Corbin just goes up and down the slide all day long, happy as can be.


He loves to swing "undog mom" "undog mom" (underdog mom!)
