The Building of the Edem Sandbox

Jason decided to build Xander a sandbox. He followed the directions off another dad's blog that he found. He decided to make the sandbox a little bigger (8x8 sand area 10x10 including bench around the edge).

Picking out materials at Lowes.

We had to bring in some dirt for around the porch. The box sits off the porch to the right.

Building the Frame

You can see the fame with top behind Xander. I painted it with a tinted deck stain.

Ready for the top to be painted.

Filled with sand and being enjoyed.

**These are older pictures. We built the sandbox in the early spring. Xander had been enjoying it all summer. **

Baby Edem #2

We are very excited about welcoming a new addition to our family on (or before) January 14, 2011!

Gram and Gramp's New Pool

So the new pool is a big hit. Here is Xander having fun with Dadoo and Uncle Eric.

Fun at the Park

Headed to the park with friends for some summer time fun!

It is always funny what ideas kids come up with that they think are funny. I have entitled this video, "Put Your Bum On It" because that is what Brin and Xander kept saying.
