And finally…

May 23rd, 2010 by Donnie

After many hours of routing, sanding, cutting, staining, and two days of putting it together with 3 other helpers…we are proud to announce the “Connor and Baby 2 Swing Set”…

Daddy had a lot of help and unfortunately has been sick since Wednesday…on Saturday and Sunday I hardly had a voice. I think Uncle Danny appreciated that as I couldn’t “bark out orders” as much!

This is not one of those swing sets you can by from Lowes, Wal-Mart, Toys-R-Us…rather it is one that I got the plans online for about $20 and bought the wood and did it all myself.

I haven’t total it all up…but the wood, parts, etc…will run around $700 and it will last for a long time!

Thanks go to Uncle Danny, Mr. Wes (Isaac and Abby’s Dad), Mr. Mark (Daddy’s buddy), Uncle Bucky (for his advice from afar), and Mommy, Grandma, and Ms. Laura (Isaac and Abby’s Mom) for making the food while we worked! I appreciate all the help you guys gave me…we did a GREAT JOB and it is so sturdy that I can swing on it with Connor!!! (Now we all know that is really why I made it!)

I am not quite done as we have to put a rock wall on the back. I didn’t buy enough wood for that piece on the first go round…I’ll post pics of that once it is done in about 2 weeks.

Here is the finished product!
