Swinging With the Boys

We've got swings!

So, I was very thankful that my neighbor, Trevor, helped me hang the chains for these swings in the backyard. 
The baby swing for Dilly, I got it at Aldi quite awhile back, is perfect! Dilly Loves it!
And the round swing was also an Aldi purchase, and Drew LOVES it!
Hard to believe that Dylan is going to be 1soon!
It was also a pretty morning when I was walking Ringo at Kent Park the other morning....doesn't this look like a painting?
And we've been baby sitting quite a bit. This guy's Mommy has been working a bit more to cover for folks at the Quick Care.
He's a big fan of Grampa!

Maintenance Time

 So a couple of weeks ago, I loaded up the kids to lend a hand at the grandparents house. The work had been needing to be done for awhile, but it wasn't easy to get a day together to get it done!
 Dad's storage shed, we call it warehouse number 2, needed a sheet of the metal roofing replaced. A branch had fallen on it and bent it up pretty bad. His insurance lady was nagging him about it, so we better get to it!
 So following Grampa's advice Ben went up the ladder to get the old sheet off.
 Then DD helped to trim the new sheet to the correct length.
 And Ben slid it in to place. He did a real good job!
 I think he kind of enjoyed using the hand tools that Grampa had on hand.
 Nothing like using some serious hand tools to appreciate power tools!

 And the job is done and looking good! I think this shed will last for another 50 years or so!
