Daddy & Dawson fixing the new flagpole for Canada Day. Yes, that is my 3-year-old up at the top of the ladder. (This was right before Rob offered to put D on the roof of the shed. I managed not to cuss him out when I said "no way!!") No wonder that kid is fearless...

This should have been a eureka moment, putting the tent up there, but unfortunately it only has a door on the suicide side, so we didn't keep it up there long.
