I HEART My Lineman Husband
My parents swing set has been broken for a year or so now. I actually recall Tricia pushing me on the swing, higher than I wanted I might add, and then a few short days later the whole top log came toppling down due to major wood rot and bug infestation!! I think Kelli and Stella were on it when Alexia noticed the log was bending in - scary! Anyway, so there hasn't been a swing set for awhile now and there has been many talks about cutting down some trees to make a new set. Well Sean, my lineman, had access to some left over power poles from work. So last week he dropped off the logs and then the next day him and Roger (his co-worker) put the poles up. Then the following day Sean and my dad bolted and strapped down the logs and tied up the new swings. The pictures below are just a few of the perks from his new job, like having equipment that makes putting up a big swing set easy and of course the equipment it takes to make climbing poles fun. Who would have thought this California boy would be using chainsaws and climbing poles?? I have to say it feels pretty good to be married to such a stud :)




and
I HEART Stella, Jonah and Ava too

Okay, you and your husband are amazing! You are both so crafty! He's making swing sets big enough for a giant gorilla, and you are just working away on all kinds of fun things! I love it! Did you get a new camera? Your pics look great!
