Box Building 101: St. Patrick's Day

I had only a few things I wanted to accomplish on St. Patrick's Day.

1) Run the St. Patrick's 5k Race in West Chester
2) Have an Irish beer
3) Be outside as much as possible
4) Do as little as possible

I feel as though I did a really nice job of accomplishing all of those things. After running the race we went home and started doing some cleaning....well at first Logan and Renae were napping while I took everything out of my shed and reorganized it all. Then while I was putting this back Renae and Logan went out front to clean the flower bed out.

Then we had some friends come over and just hang out with us outside. Crickett (a good friend from work) came over and we were chit-chatting when our friend Ray (missionary to Kenya) showed up. Renae and I think it's cool that they were both there because the friend that Ray was to Renae and her old company is the same kind of friend that Crickett is to me at my current job. They are both really awesome friends.

Then the Kang's (Ka'Chi Truck Owners) came over to hang out and see if we could help them build a box that would muffle the sound from their generator. So, we put out minds together and came up with a plan.

He is testing the box out this week, so we will see how the base model works...and then make some adjustments from there. Hopefully it will get the job done, but if not then it is back to the drawing boards.

Enjoy:

Eying up the measurements for the first cut!

Having saw dust fly into the eye on the first cut!

Logan called out the measurements of the generator to us so that we didn't have to keep measuring them.

Logan and Ray inspected my work as I cut out the hole for the exhaust.

Logan just wanted to be in all the photos that he could possibly be in :)

He got to take a break for snacks and milk!!!! You can tell that he enjoys his snack time!

Although it looks like we are perplexed we were just...well we were perplexed that we had just built a box.

Sung-yoon tested out the durability of the box by playing with Logan inside of it.

However, Logan stayed in to inspect a few more things and was letting us know what his thoughts were.

Logan has a crush on Dawn. He was trying to act all cool, but he couldn't help but smile.

They played peek-a-boo through the exhaust vent.

I love this shot of Logan.
