It's Alive

I, Kevin, have taken over Becky's blog for this one.

Well after starting it nearly 4 weeks ago, right before the 22 straight days of monsoon season, we've had up here it is finally finished, well, close enough to post pics of. I had this dream of building a "tree house", more like a tree deck, but non the less, a fun structure for our kids as well as all that come over, since we moved here nearly a year ago. I am very glad it is finished so we can start to enjoy it now.

Here is the Mastercard List:

18 lbs of screws

350 lbs of concrete

410 sq feet of lumber

5 trees (they were already there)

Nascar qualification racing slick, Left Front tire to be exact

20 climbling holds

16 ft very fast slide, look at the fear in Carter's eyes

2 steering wheels

Tube intercom system

17 feet of chain

Binoculars

Tire pony

14 ft Firemans pole, which puts fear in my eyes

Tic-tac-toe (to be done this weekend)

The fact that my kids think that I am the best dad in the world: Priceless

The fact that I have all of my fingers and eyeballs: Bonus priceless

The fact that Becky's pheromone receptors go crazy for the smell of sweat and sawdust: Extra bonus priceless

The fact that birds poop on it: about 119.99 (the cost of a pellet gun) J/K?, unless they do it again then some one is getting a pellet in the beak.

The fact that everyone will hopefully have as much fun on it as we do: Super bonus priceless, which is good, but not better than Extra bonus priceless.

And this is the reason Becky does not let me post on her blog about our family :)
