Pooped!

Okay, so we spent three hours yesterday (that felt like six) moving the two platforms for the play set from Elkhorn to our house. This involved renting a Uhaul trailer*, going to the house we picked up at, loading a twelve foot tall platform (that probably weighed 600 - 800 pounds), driving to our place, unloading**, driving back to Elkhorn, loading, driving back to our house, unloading. It was tiring! Thanks to Mom and Dad for helping with the loading/unloading and watching the kids!

*We were not impressed with the Uhaul people ... it took half and hour to rent the dumb thing of which 25 minutes was us just sitting there while they tried to figure out the paperwork!

**We only had one small hiccup on the whole thing, that being a slight intersection of a tree and an extended beam off one of the platforms. The platform survived, but not fully intact ... a bit of repair work will be required.

Fortunately, the weather was great. Now we just need to find some time to complete Emma's room and then get to the playset.

In the midst of all that yesterday, the kids had teeball ... this time in beautiful weather. Today is a playdate for Timmy and his "friend" Makoto (Makoto is actually only 16 months, but they should be okay together). Emma has swim lessons tonight as well.
