Step #1, Step #2, Step #3042...

After a long process of looking for a swing set, getting it approved, and waiting for the order to arrive at the store, it finally got delivered to our house on Saturday! Curt wanted to put it together himself instead of paying to have it done. I was afraid that it would take him a couple weeks, but he got it done by Sunday night. 

Ben and Curt with most of the swing set pieces.

This is how Ben and I helped on Saturday evening. At least we kept Curt company while we ate popsicles. :)

Curt found this bug on the swing set on Sunday. It as so big and gross that he had to take a picture. Ben and I stayed away until it was gone!

This is pretty much where Curt started on Sunday. It had been upside down on Saturday night (without the extra top wooden piece). I was concerned that Curt would not be able to flip it over to work on the rest, but a neighbor saw him trying to move it and came over to help. I was so happy for that! Later another neighbor brought Curt his drill over with an attachment that really helped speed up Curt's work. We were so thankful for helpful neighbors.

 The finished swing set (minus one wooden bar that will go between the swings and the tire swing). Curt will get that added this week.

This is the other side that has a climbing wall. I was surprised how fast Ben climbed right up it.

Curt worked A LOT of hours on it this weekend, but it was worth it to make one little boy so happy. :)
