Summer Flashback- Shop class with Grandpa


Those that know my dad, or my brother for that matter, know they have a certain affection for tools. Well, Tim's boys do too. In fact, they spend a lot of time in the garage building and learning with Grandpa.













After hearing about what the boys refer to as "shop class," they couldn't wait to get out there. My dad, being the ultra cool Grandpa, was more than happy to oblige. He tracked down plans on the net for a simple birdhouse.

Weston & Brandon, being experienced acted as the assistants and helped G, Tre & Lauren use the tools, etc.
















Giuliana, while having very girly coordination, did a great job. Dad was concerned about their clothes and had them wear his shirts over their own. Which, I think was also really really cool to G.
















No lack of focus here. He was so proud of all the hammering he did. Brandon even helped him practice pulling out nails he had hammered in.












Don't let this sweet smile fool you. She can so totally hold her own- those brothers of her's better not try pushing her around. Lauren was so much fun this year. She's really come out of her shell. Last year, I'm not sure I got any pictures of her smiling. She talked to us all- especially Tre (but she liked him last year too). The pictures don't do justice to their bright blue eyes either. All 3 of them have gorgeous eyes.
