The Slide

I've mentioned the slide before, right?  The one that Nick and Nate are both quite giddy about.  Well, they started it last week and it is going to be so so fun!  A handful of people have worked on figuring out the physics of it all and assembling the actual slide (including Nick and Nate's boys [they're our official sanders - they do it by sliding down, lol] but primarily Nate and Jose).  It's going to be a solid wood stained dark to match the rest of the house and I'm super excited to see the final product. I think it's going to be gorgeous!

Here are a few pictures of the progression of the slide...

I think Cole's going to love it!
