Congratulations Landon Dean! You are amazing!
Next up, Landon is making a trailer... like welding steel together. He has never welded before, but of course this doesn't stop him! Once the trailer is done we will be taking her out. Landon is going to go by himself the first time, just to make sure she doesn't tip over or something :) I can't wait!!
Wow that's quite the project! It looks awesome!
ReplyDeleteWow. Your hubby is so talented. I think we all wish we were a little more like him. And I have to tell you that I really liked his painting bucket in those pictures - nothing like using an old ice cream bucket! I'm so glad you like ice cream as much as we do. We can't wait to take a ride in Thumbelina! Dave is already creating some pirate names for all of us. :)
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness! Coolest thing ever! And best husband ever!! Haha :)
