The Barn

The boys checked out the new "playhouse" as soon as it was done...

Jacob wanted to move his bed in right away.

Jenson was amazed that it only took three days to build a house.

Jason and Grandpa

Sitting on the roof. Jenson freaked out that Mommy was not safe.

I didn't get to help much after that.

Swinging

The boys eventually got bored with the shed and needed some Mommy time.

Little Helpers

The boys built a bridge out of the wood scraps
Then they built a tower

Jacob was promoted from Quality Assurance Specialist to Foreman

The boys had a great time helping build the shed/barn/kids house

Raising the Barn

Boys help build

Quality Assurance Specialists, Jacob and Jenson, supervised the building of the barn.

Ummmm... a little to the left!

A dirty work site is a dangerous work site. Clean this up!

Don't forget to wear your safety goggles!

Pouring cement

As the youngest, I was given the job of edging, smoothing and sawing the cement.

Jason mixed the cement.

Adam poured and helped me saw.

Dad was supposed to be supervising, but couldn't seem to stay off his knees to demonstrate the appropriate way to do everything. He is a true teacher; he knows that his pupils will never get it right if he simply stands back and tells them what to do.
