Building with Papa

The girls got a Tool Box building kit from Home Depot and today they put it together. They had their kits and hammer in hand and were ready to build. Papa read the instructions and got the girls started on pounding in the nails into the outside pieces. Victoria did a good job of hitting the nail every time. Elizabeth was a wild woman and went to town hitting the nail with the side of the hammer along with moving the other hand too. I helped the girls keep the hammer steady and they did all the pounding. Victoria was slow and steady and Elizabeth was hard and quick. They glued the handle in and then they were done. The girls and I painted the tool boxes, wrote their names on them and they had some stickers of tools to put on the boxes. We are going to go to Toys R Us to get them some tools. It was so fun doing this with them and Papa loved spending time with them since he has no boys. It was a fun day.
