Thanks for the new playground, Daddy! And Uncle Todd!






We got a lot done around our house this week, thanks to much of our family. Grandpa and Grandma Iverson came up to Duluth on Saturday and stayed through Sunday, helping with Cole and with painting and playground set-up. Todd and Stephanie came over Saturday and Sunday too. Todd helped Ryan with the playground and finishing the roof (yes, the shingles FINALLY arrived from Menards after about 8 weeks....augghh!!) and Steph attacked the weeds that were in danger of taking over the house and yard. On Sunday night, Ryan's cousin Greg and his wife Maren flew in from Philadelphia to spend the night on their way up to the BWCA to her family's cabin. Monday we were able to get in a nice sail and see some of the tall ships as they were leaving port. Tuesday, Grandma Sharrow came over and helped with Cole so we could finish up painting, roofing, and playground assembly. What a productive few days!!

Cole is enjoying his new playground...I have a feeling that it is where we will be spending the rest of the summer. He loves the slide the most. He also likes the toddler swing. Rather than "swing," he calls it "WHEEE!!" Fun, fun, fun!!

Apparently the pictures are fuzzy because I had the flash forced on. Oops. Evidently I need to take a class to learn how to use our camera.
