liz and ben's interesting ideas...

so...this afternoon liz comes into the store and asks if we have a large plastic bag that would hold a boxspring mattress and also some rope. we were like..."hmmm, okay..what for??" she proceeded to tell us what their plans were...the boxspring wouldn't fit up the stairs, so they were going to pull it up through the window!! now this we had to see!! when they were ready to hoist it up outside...she called and said, "if you want some entertainment this afternoon stop over!!"

ben, tying the ropes onto the mattress...

liz and miles looking down three stories at ben and the mattress...

1, 2, 3...pull!!
(with brandon down below!!)

toward the third story it goes!!

oofdah! it got stuck! so down it went and brandon tied another rope on it and turned the mattress around.

hmmm...liz tied the ropes to the child's gate!!

and one more time...1,2,3 pull!! this time the mattress came in through the window successfully!
it was all for a very good cause though, you see...now liz can take over the spare bedroom with her scrapbook room!!
