Evolution of a Playset

Last weekend Chad and his Uncle Don put together a playset for the backyard. Uncle Don brought us the set all the way from Memphis and spent his weekend with us working on it in the HEAT of Mississippi. They pretty much worked all day on Friday and most of the day on Saturday. They were able to save most of the frame but needed to replace a lot of the wood on the floors and railings that had rotted. Needless to say, they worked very hard to make it just right for Miss Abigail.

Getting started on Friday.


Starting to take shape.

By the end of the day Friday Abigail was worn out just from watching it all.
She was back out there Saturday morning to supervise their hard work.

Almost finished!

Final product!

First time on the swing! Abigail could not stop laughing with excitement.
Testing out the big girl swing too.

Daddy had to climb up and show her the ropes.


Abigail already loved being outside, but with this backyard addition she wants to play out there all day! Come soon Fall so Mommy doesn't melt while Abigail spends every waking hour on the playset.

Thank you Uncle Don for this wonderful gift and for sacrificing your weekend to put it all together. We loved spending time with you and Abigail can't wait for you to come back!
