Tiiiiimmmmmber!

There was lots of lumber around our house today...in fact, there was a full truck load! This morning (after another great "gripps" breakfast) a big semi pulled into our yard and unloaded over 10 boxes full of lumber, metal, plastic and oh yes, even a big circle of rubber. Got any ideas what it was? My swing set... my birthday present from Gramercy and Papa Doc. Mr. Frank is setting it up for me and he got a great start on this this afternoon. He even let me help with his hammer! But I spent a lot of the afternoon after nap time sitting in my butterfly chair watching Mr. Frank work. I can't wait until the set is put together - there's 2 swings, a tire swing, a trapeze bar, a gang plank, a rope ladder, a rock wall, a swinging bridge, a tic-tac-toe board, a telescope, a sand box, a picnic table and a fort tower. Totally awesome!

Oh my gosh - I can't believe you remember that Robyn...you know I taught that to Logan and Carter - we will definitely have to teach it to Abby...mainly because it is soooo true...you go so much higher when you sing the Rainbow Bright song outloud!!! What an awesome gift - I know Abby will have tons of fun. Does Mr. Frank know when it will be finished?
