My Very Own Rock Pit




After many months of work, the diggers on the street north of us have finally finished. Colin is very sad to see the workers and diggers go. He became quite the "groupie" after months of watching each and every day. He and I happened upon the biggest digger being loaded onto the semi truck this weekend and it was a sad moment for us both. Colin made such friends with the foreman, Todd, that Todd took him for a drive in this huge digger a few weeks ago. Thankfully the worker loading the truck was very kind and recognized Colin. He gave Colin an actual key to the digger! Colin is thrilled and keeps it on his own key ring to hang by his belt loops.

With the loss of the diggers and Colin's birthday this week, Daddy came up with a great idea to build for Colin. Colin now has his very own "rock pit" in the back yard to use with his diggers. Daddy and Colin worked hard on Saturday and finished it in one day. Colin loves it and although it's not the same as the big diggers, it sure is fun.
