Super Fantastic!

With a lot of help from our family the children's swing set is up and ready for use! Since we moved into our new home in November, the swing set was left at the Altmans' previous home. It took a lot of work to get it to our new property. Matt's dad and brother and Kara's cousin Ben (our houseguest at the time) spent a few hours helping Matt deconstruct the swing set, load it into Grandpa Tim's truck, and then unload it and haul it down the hill. Thank you Grandpa Tim, Tyler, and Ben!

Unfortunately, the swing set still had to be put back together before it was ready to play on. So, Matt had to organize a second work party. Here are a few photos from that work session last night.


Matt recruited Cousin John, Cousin Dan, and opa to help him out. Dan's wife Anne came with Dan, but she (like Kara and I!) didn't help out with the hard labor. Every work party needs a few cheerleaders, right?


The children were very excited to see their swing set being put back together. They were ready to get playing long before the work crew finished their labors.



Finally it was PLAY TIME!


Thanks John and Dan (and Anne for lending us Dan)!
