New Swing Set!

Reed's big birthday gift this year was a new swing set! Although it came 2 months late!  We had quite a bit of dirt work that needed to be done in the back yard before we could set it up because we wanted to make sure we had a good level spot.  So the first weekend of June Josh rented a backhoe and leveled out the dirt and then we laid sod.  Finally the time came to start constructing the swing set!  I didn't do a good job of documenting the process, but I capture a few shots along the way.

This was only 1/2 of the wood! 


Josh's Mom was a lifesaver and she organized all of the hardware into individual bags by step!


Uncle Branden and Papa came over to help!



First time down the slide!


I think they like it! 




The finishd product, grass and all!  Now we just need to landscape behind it, always a work in progress, right?


It was a lot of hard work, but we have loved having swings and slide right in our backyard!
