Did I mention I LOVE Craigslist?





We got this swing-set for FREE on craigslist! All we had to do was take it down, load it in our minivan, buy a shovel to dig up the ground around it and secure it, and I had to make a new awning for it because the old one was sun-damaged to shreds. My boys LOVE it and want to play on it all day! It is a really fun set, just the right size for our backyard. You can't get a better deal than that!

All you had to do was take it down and make a new awning? You make that sound so easy! Well worth the time and effort though.

Wow that IS a nice one!  Well worth the price I am sure. Good job on the awning!

I never would have thought of putting a swingset in the backyard of those townhouses. Looks like fun. I hated seeing your pictures of Nicholas's b-day party at the park--it made me miss everyone. Hope all is well with you! --Brenna

Have I mentioned how much I miss being closer to you guys? No, no, no, of course it's not because of the new swingset... :)
