Two Saturdays ago we decided to finally buy the kids a swing set. While purchasing the swing set we asked them if they had anyone who we could hire to put it together. They had NOTHING. We figured we would give it a try. We spent most of the weekend and then EVERY night when Daniel would get home we would head straight out until dark. Some how we managed to survive with out any big fights but by Thursday I just wanted it to be DONE. THANKS to Allen coming over and then David and Allen coming back over Saturday morning it is finally DONE.
The swing set came in four boxes and each box just had random unlabeled pieces in them. EVERYTHING had to be put together which made it very time consuming.
Lesson learned- next time hire someone. Daniel actually enjoyed putting it together himself and I did too until about mid week :).
The KIDDOS LOVE THE SWING SET!!! Now Levi wakes up saying "OUTSIDE".

We lucked out years (and years) ago when we put up ours. Ben came over and did the entire thing for us! Brothers are wonderful!
Love Kinleigh's outfit in that top picture!!!
Looks awesome and fun from a kid perspective....Looks terrifyingly like hard work and lots of frustration as a parent! :) glad it's done! :)
