Poppy's Big Surprise

My dad for several weeks was working on a special project. He bought the grand kids a big play set. He took time off of work and spent many weekends and nights working on this. He hauled in dirt to level the area, he stained all the pieces beautifully and put it all together. We had to keep the girls away for a bit until it was finished. So on Mothers Day, the big reveal happened. We were all anxious to see their reaction. Tried to catch it on video (until my camera died, errrr), it was so funny. Emma saw it and shocked said, "OH MARMEE! What is it?" And went right for it. Angelica headed right to the trampoline until she turned around in amazement and saw it! Emma has already clocked hours in on the swing and asks all the time to go to Poppy's house to play on it. What a treasure....not only because they will have so many memories playing on it over the years and with cousins but mostly because their Poppy built it for them!! Thank you Dad, you are amazing!!
