Jim's First Woodworking Project

I often wonder about my husband...did he ever grow up, or is he still 6 years old and excited about his toys? Then I remembered...as men get older their toys just seem to get more and more expensive but the excitement never fades. Jim has slowly been working on acquiring tools so that he may try his hand at woodworking and this week he was really excited because he finally felt ready to take on his first project. On Friday he took a break from work and bought the last of the tools that he thought he might need for his weekend project.

This morning I was awoken pretty early when I heard/felt Jim moving around in bed and realized he was in the process of getting out of bed. I rolled over and looked at the clock..it was 4:45, so I asked Jim why he had gotten up so early and he told me that he couldn't sleep...he was to excited about his day. All week Jim has been talking about this woodworking project he was planning on doing today and I guess the excitement of his tool pron prevented him from sleeping. So at 4:45 Jim got out of bed...please keep in mind that it's hard to get Jim out of bed before 7:30am so him getting up that early was a shock. Anyway, after I made him breakfast this morning he got right to work constructing two saw horses. Him and Jimmy finished them about an hour ago and the following pictures are the end result.
