New Play Set

We have been looking around at different play sets for about a month or so and we finally found one. It has everything we were looking for: three swings, a tire swing, slide, large fort area, thick wood, sanded edges, etc... We were lucky enough to have a great friend who was able to help us get it at a great price. John and Taylor are both loving their new play set.

Everything laid out and ready to go.

Poindexter thinks its his new outdoor water bowl, John thought he would give it a try as well.

looking good!

Jason got everything up on day one except for the swings. John and Emma did not mind. I finally got them to sit down to take a break in the shade. I had to bribe them with popsicles, but it worked.


Last step is the swings.


Finally done and the kids are enjoying it.

In this picture John was swinging on the "big boy swing" and doing great at it. Then he decided he wanted Taylor's pink swing up and he enjoyed that even more. Good thing we have three swings, so he can pick which one he wants to swing on. Another great thing is that each swing holds 200lbs which means Jason and I can swing too. I gave it a go and man did it bring back childhood memories.
