Ground floor complete

The Captain worked for many hours to get the ground floor of the tree house complete and the boys were ecstatic.

There is an enormous sand box.  It took 18- 50lb bags of sand to fill that sucker.  They now have a nice big bench to sit on all around the sand box.  (My mom and I hauled the sand to the sandbox.  I decided I should return to taking care of baby K full time after that.)

They immediately gathered all their sand toys plus wood scraps and began playing.  I didn't see them the rest of the day.  They did briefly come in for food.

The Captain hopes to get the 2nd story floor/roof for the sand box up soon so they will have some shade.  It's supposed to hit 100 degrees tomorrow.  It's going to be a hot summer!
