Our new playset
I have been keeping my eye out at garage sales, the newspaper and craiglist for used playhouses and I finally found the PERFECT one. It was listed on craigslist by a family who is moving and can't take it along. It was a joint effort getting this thing home. Kathy split the cost of the playset with us as an early birthday gift for the girls. Dan's dad loaned us his truck and was in Colorado last week so my dad drove over to Kalamazoo, MI with Dan to pick it up. Then my dad got hit in the eye with a snapped bungee cord and they made a stop by Medpoint and didn't get back from the trip until about 11pm. But now it is all set up and the girls LOVE it! Thanks to everyone!

ReplyDeleteWay to put 'em to work, sis! haha. That play set looks super cute! The girls are just precious. There are no words :) Looking forward to seeing you all in a couple weeks.
ReplyDeleteSo cute!!! Now if you find another one, let me know! :)
ReplyDeleteThat is awesome! What a great find! I was looking at the pictures and Kaelyn came over and said, "What's that?" I told her that Magnolia and Boothe got a swing set at their house and she asked if we could go play on it. I said probably one day we could go over and play and she said, "Hopefully Magnolia will share it with me." :) I'm sure your girls love it and will have so much fun playing with it!
ReplyDeleteJer and my dad are supposed to be building one in our back yard, but we'll see if it actually gets done before the end of the summer! Ha!
