Finished and ready in record time!! :)

So we bought the play set on Wednesday thinking it would be at least a few days before it was ready to be played on.  Charles was going to start with the wooden border around the play set but decided he would go ahead and set it up first and do the border later.  So, at 11:00 a.m. he began putting it together.  At 12:30 he decided it would be much easier and faster if he had some help so he called his brother.  Brian showed up around 3, they worked and worked and at 12:30 a.m. the play set was finished.  I couldn't believe they got it done in one day... our neighbors were probably hating us Wednesday night but neither of them wanted to stop until it was done.  The boys were able to go out and play the next day and they absolutely love it!!  Definitely money well spent and I know come August and September it will be a lifesaver to have back there.

The finished product :)

Jacob wasting no time!

Chase knew just what to do! 

Chase breaking in the swings!  Jacob is not a fan of the swings yet, but he'll get used to them quickly I'm sure!

      This is by far Chase's favorite thing... he spent well over an hour on one just like this at his cousin Emma's house a few weekends ago.  He has really gotten the hang of it and can go super high! :)

A HUGE thanks to Uncle Brian, Charles' brother, for sacrificing his time to come over and help Charles out.  It really is a 2 person job and was so much easier for Charles having his brother's help.  Now all that is left to do is the border around their play area and lots of mulch.  After that we're hoping to sod this fall and really have the backyard looking great!! :)
