Car Carrier

Griff is a bit obsessed with cars and "car carriers". He LOVES to watch for the big trucks that carry the cars on the highway, and he will scream at the top of his lungs "CAR CARRIER" when he sees one.  He had a toy one, which was smashed beyond repair awhile ago, and he's been sad ever since. Enter Mike today......Griff was talking about car carriers today, and I mentioned that maybe Dad could build you one. Well, Mike took that suggestion and ran with it.....he spent at least five hours today building Griff a pretty cool car carrier out of wood shims, wood glue, staples, toothpicks and straws!  The engineer in him came out in full force!  Griff LOVES it...I'm just hoping Mike won't be too sad when someone accidently falls or steps on it!  

The other random picture is from the other day. All three kids are eating suckers, watching some movie on tv while I make dinner (yes, they were eating suckers right before dinner :-).  They looked pretty cute, all sitting together on our big chair, happily engrossed in the movie and their sucker.
