What You Don't Want To Do...

What you don't want to do at 9:00 am after drinking beer with neighbors until 2:30 am the night before:
Assemble one of these. (It took 2 hours, ya'll.)

And if you do build a motorized marble ramp the morning after drinking beer on the porch until 2:30 am, you tend to end up with this:

A lot of extra pieces.

Riley actually got the assembly off to a decent start, but soon the pieces weren't connecting the way they should have. Come to find out, Riley hadn't realized the pieces were numbered and was just putting it together by sight. By the time I'd gotten his assembly figured out, he was bored. Surprise. So I pretty much built it myself.

It took two hours to complete once the box was open, and it entertained the boys for about two minutes. They've been fighting amongst themselves in the basement (with Anna) ever since.

Shannon was going through popsicles last night about as fast as we went through beers, and I just had to get a picture of Shannon's face, do you see any resemblance (look at Shannon's mouth):

And finally, here are some more pictures of Shannon and Corey playing last night:
