THE PLAYSET!!!!!

For David's birthday, we wanted to get the kids a playset. We did our homework and ordered one online that was delivered promptly, too promptly for our current lifestyle. Part of the deal was we need to erect the swingset. The instructions said it would take the normal family 6 hours. We figured probably double that would be a good estimate for us. It only took 2 weeks...those college degrees were of no help whatsoever.....This is what it looked like upon delivery:
After several rain delays, we finally got the "core" of the set up. Here is the frame going up:
Mom actually helped some too:
Then we had, shall we say, a "significant" precipitation weather delay:
FINALLY, the weather cooperated and we finished....and there was much rejoicing!!!
I don't know who was happier....Daddy or David!!!
Despite the weather delay, David got some outside time in the snow!!!
David gets to say bye-bye to too much inside time and his favorite inside toys:
Our sweet Delaney has fully mastered rolling over and we are madly trying to get some pictures of that but haven't been successful yet. She's almost 5 months now and cute as a button:
