The Swing Set

*coming soon…all the other stuff I’ve been meaning to post
Nathan spent many hours last week putting our new play set together. When it says 9-12 hours for assembly go ahead and assume they mean triple that. But, it’s finally together. And it’s a hit.
The children did help where they could but this was definitely a labor of love.
There’s our play set…on the back of a big truck.image-9
Poor delivery man carried it all by himself from the road to the back yard.

Aurelia was napping so William got the first swing ride. He’s seven months old now and such a sweetie.

That roof was heavy. And kind of awkward. image-1
