The Sandbox

We have a space in the backyard that the owners before us used as a dog run and a garden so we have taken that down in stages and this spring we had the brilliant idea to make a section of it into a sandbox. Parkers daycare provider has a sandbox and he LOVES it. He gets so mad when he has to get out. So we decided to give him one at home to play in. It was a pretty easy process because my husband is so handy and knows what he is doing. He is nice to have around. I think we will keep him.

Daddy and Parker working on the frame and digging out the dirt to make room for the sand.
almost done...just one more peice to cut

Now it is time to fill it with...2 tons of sand...
Even Parker wanted to help...LITTLE heavy!!
Even mommy got in on the action...look at those guns!!
ALL done!!!

We still need to make a lid for it but so far so good. Parker seems to like it and has fun playing and getting dirty in the sand. He is such a boy! I love it.
