Drew lost a tooth!

Well, here are some pictures of the big event! He was eating corn on the cob tonight, and then said, "Hey! I think I broke my tooth!" Phil just told him to stop being a whiner, but I had a suspicion that it might be a loose tooth, and it was! He worked on it all this evening, and it finally popped out. So, he gets to see if that pesky tooth fairy is any more reliable for him than she was for the girls..... : )

Finally, two years later: A PLAYGROUND!

Well, we finally got the playground finished! The playset has been sitting in our garage for over a year and a half! It took so long because we had to build a retaining wall, fill it with lots of dirt, etc., so we needed to save up!
The kids can walk out our back door, across stepping stones in the lawn, to a slide that goes down into the play area. There are also stone steps with a gate as an alternate way to get down to the playground. Eventually we will put a play house to the left of the playset.
