Papa Always Keeps His Word




When I got the news that Kelli Wilkins was getting married on March 21st, I was so happy!...Yes, it was great that Kelli was getting married, but the best part was that I would get those sweet grandbabies of mine down here to Phoenix!! The first thing I asked my sweet, gifted, talented husband was if he could change the work schedule of our backyard project and move the swingset up in the queue. He did...and the goal for completion was 3-21-08. Then, Kelli had scheduling conflicts and moved the wedding to April 18th. I was sad, but again, that sweet husband kept on. He built a copy of a Rainbow Swingset, and, with much help from Nathan, and brute strength from Doran, Ethan, and a few neighbors, the swingset was operating on March 21st, plus a climbing deck, 2 rock walls, a turbo tube slide (Home Depot beaurocracy rivals that of Washington D.C.), and the best bouncy duckie (Doran...you are amazing with a paint sprayer!!) And so, the initial viewing, with more completion yet to come. Adam and Grace, Papa loves you soooo much...and here is how he shows it!!!
