Playset

Katelyn's big present for her birthday was her play set! David was going to wait for my dad to get up here to help him, but when i got called off from work on Sat, he decided to go ahead and attempt to start this weekend. It didn't take him long though to get into it and decide he wanted to finish it all in one weekend by himself! Most everything says it will take at least 8-12 hours with several people working on it. Of course this weekend too had to be the hottest weekend yet!!! I was able to help him here and there, but mostly I kept up with Katelyn so he could work on it.
Here are the boxes everything came in. Between the two i think
they weighed like 300lbs!

This is some of the wood all laid out.

The first completed piece, the ladder and climbing wall!

These 3 boards alone took us awhile to get together,
but we got it!

This was the completed part at the end of Day 1! Way to go David!


DAY 2

David didn't get started til the afternoon because we went to church and had lunch and actually it was even hotter on Sunday, so he had to take more breaks, but he was determined and his determination paid off!
The ladder and rock wall attached to the fort!

The slide attached and that had to be put together too!

The front has a picnic table, so cute!


The tarps attached on top, just in time before the rain came down!


Almost finished, but unfortunately 2 screws were missing that were very important to stabilize the whole thing, so we had to wait until today to go to Lowe's to get them, then we can put the swings and glider on, so Katelyn can actually swing! We did let Katelyn play in the complete fort part and she loved it already!


Again amazing job done by David, i think all together it took him less than 12 hours and that was all by himself!
