swingset!




it's done! it's done! it's done! we now have a totally finished custom daddy-built swingset! hooray! we have to hand it to phil on this one... he did a pretty spectacular job :) it has monkeybars, two swings, rings, a rope ladder, fort, ladder and slide. eventually there will be an enclosed playspace under the fort, but that may be a while longer. we also have some hand grips to add as soon as they arrive next week. in the end, the whole thing came to just under $350 for the entire thing, most of which went to the components like the slide, tarp, etc. we were able to use materials left over from the deck/fence project, which saved us alot of cash. the rungs for the ladder and monkeybars are leftovers from Creative Energies projects, which was really helpful as well.

  1. OMG...to say this is incredible is putting it mildly. Phil you amaze me. This would have to cost you well over $1000 if you bought it all and even more if someone built it. I can't even imagine how much the girls love it. And on top of that, the fenced in yard makes it so safe for them to be out there. CONGRATS!!!!!! I LOVE the flags, Blair. They look so perfect with the colors of the roof, ladder, slide, etc.
