Working and Playing

When Daniel is playing with his tools, I sometimes ask, "Are you getting some work done?" This has now become a phrase he frequently uses. Whenever he picks up his tool box, he says, "Get work done." Well, this weekend was definitely a time for all of us to get some work done. Brian is tearing out our old kitchen floor in preparation for the new flooring. (Hallelujah, we have finally picked out new flooring after over a year of deliberation!) Below you can see our progress. That big hole in the cabinet is where the dishwasher belongs. Unfortunately, it is out of commission while the old flooring is being ripped up. Oh, how I miss my dishwasher!

Brian's dad came over on Saturday to help with the work and, of course, to play with Daniel! We pulled out the wading pool for the first time this year, and Daniel had a blast...especially after Brian and his dad moved the pool beneath his slide. Daniel was shooting down that slide like a rocket and splashing into the water. It was a hoot!
