Playscape

As I said in an earlier post, we tore down the old playscape and rebuilt it so it would be sturdier. We only had a couple hours each Sat. to work on it so it took 4 weekends and it's finally finished. Here is our progress. The kids love it!



Week 1: Hauling the wood back to the backyard and putting down the weed fabric. We double did the weed fabric just to make sure. My handy little helpers.

Week 2: Kevin built part of the tower by himself. He couldn't do much because he had all the kids by himself because I was working that weekend.

Week 3: Building the tower and attaching the swing beam.

Week 4: Finishing the tower, building and attaching the climbing wall, attaching the slide, and putting in a baby swing for Kylie.

Finally, attach a rope ladder onto the back and put up the tarps. Finally, something for the kids to do outside. Thanks Daddy!!


P.S. Yes, the tower is leaning a little. Our yard slopes really bad and we tried to level the area but it just didn't work. We will be putting gravel in the play area as soon as Kevin can get it from a guy at work.
