The Swingset!

For anyone who knows me it is not a suprise that I am not a very patient person! Our boys have been asking for a swingset for a while now and I have been putting it off because I hate to put things together. Let me give you an example....try to follow along....step 1. place piece A1-2.2 in slot R2-3.1 and use pieces J9, K12 and B15 to fasten them together. Holy cow man! If Serena wasn't there to keep me sane I would have wrapped those freaking poles around my neck! Thank goodness that wasn't the case! My beautiful assistant kept me hydrated and happy! After 2 hours of sorting through what seemed to be tons of misc. parts and extra nuts and bolts WE got it together! Thanks to my beautiful wife! Thanks babe I love you! The kids love it. No broken arms or legs yet! We're crossing our fingers!

  6. Wow we have the exact swing set here at our house. You will get much use of it. If you don't care for the red color, the sun will bleach it to a weird green. hehe.
