Weekend update...

So this weekend was very productive for us.
We spent friday late afternoon/evening and almost all day saturday putting Mady's playset together.
Yes, this is the playset that Frank said he could do "all by himself in 3 hours", but it's been a whole week of 3-4 hour days and still not much.
So i took it upon myself to recruit my step dad to help.
Frank wasn't too happy, but he took the help anyway.
We got a pretty decent chunk done on friday,
then saturday we got almost all of it put together!
I was the board and attachment fetcher.
I found everything that was needed for each step, and the guys put it all together.
My mom, bless her soul, was the kiddie wrangler.
Mady loves my mom and step dad, and she loves to wear them out playing.
Thank God my mom was a good sport, because it really helped us get things done, not having the constant interuption of a 2 year old wanting up and down, and to run and jump.
Frank worked on the main structure while Gary put the swing beam, the stairs and the rock wall together.
All that's left is to attach the stairs, rock wall, slide and railing beams...
And that should only take another hour, 2 at most.
The only bad thing now is, it's supposed to rain all week and Mady sits on the back porch and stares at the playset wanting to go out soooooo bad.
Soon baby, soon!
