Under Construction & More Billboard Sightings!

Grampy and Grammy Steece bought the quads an awesome outside Step 2 swing set for their birthday! So early Saturday morning, the dudes headed outside to assemble the equipment. Shiloh was overseeing the project while resting in the shade.



Uncle Ed drove up to join in the fun!...by this time, its getting a weeeee bit toasty outside.



Heat exhaustion can do some crazy things to 2 grown men.



Success! We LOVE it--it is the perfect size for four 2-year olds! Plenty of swings, lots of room in the double decker playhouse...the kids have a blast on it. (The next post will have lots of pics with the kiddos playing on their new swing set! SO much fun!)



3 engineers and 6 hours later---Thank you guys SO much for your hard work! Love you to pieces!!!



Later that afternoon, the out of town fam was itching to see the billboards---so we cleaned up and headed over to the Fort Worth Zoo area on University. HOLY COW! I hadn't seen this one up close--it was awesome!



SO neat to see the kids recognize themselves right away! They were all saying: "E....Doo....Ssssah....Beeeeen" SO CUTE! (Mama with Sav, Jess with E, Grammy with Ben, Grampy with Drew)



Because things can happen in an instant....INDEED! (Ethan, Andrew, Savannah, Benjamin)



This was especially neat for Grammy to experience, b/c the quads' Great Grandfather Tracy built his business with his own two hands---billboards, signs, etc. So special to watch life come full circle...he would be so proud of his great-grandquads! ;)


Other exciting news today: My cousin Jason and his wife Julie will be welcoming their baby girl, Reagan, into the world any second now! SO excited! and Quad Mom-Beth Walker and her husband, Casey, are celebrating the release of his new CD with his band, CAVO: Bright Nights, Dark Days (of which the single, "Let it Go" is on the Transformers II soundtrack! So cool!) Congrats you guys!

Next up: Dinner at Joe T Garcia's; Late Night Birthday Cupcakes; Swing set and presents!
