It has been along time in the making and planning but it has finally arrived, the sand for the sandbox.
We did a great deal of debating since we moved here as to where to put the sandbox. We finally decided to shrink the garden and use a section of that for the sandbox.
The kids and mostly Peter dug a two foot deep hole.
Peter collected samples from several places so we could pick the perfect sand.
I believe the kids were as excited about the dump truck as they were about the sand finally being here.
Lily was not so sure about the giant truck.
Thank heavens Peter is so strong and shoveled so much sand to get it all spread out and filled in. The kids were energetic and helpful but their energy waned as the temperature was probably 98.
They loved it though and I will remember their joy as I will forever be cleaning up sand in my house.
Now we need to finish constructing the shade cover (that is what the tall metal poles are for).
