The Sky Fort!

Me and Donnie got this great idea to buy the girls a swing set. Sad, I know, our girls didn't even have one. We looked around for months (they're hard to find in the winter time) and finally settled on the "Sky Fort" from Sam's Club. This sucker took a week to put together! It did rain 3 of those days though, so technically speaking it was only 4 days of work. And to make us look even better, Donnie was on night shift so he slept half the day on 2 of those days while I worked alone. Had things gone our way, it would have been 2 days, tops.
Anyway, it's finished and the girls love it. It has a picnic table, a sand box, a rock climbing wall, a lookout tower WITH a telescope and a clubhouse. What more could a little girl ask for? Here's some pics of the day we got it finished.



It looks so much bigger in real life! When you're in the lookout tower it's scary!

I bet they are loving that. My kids have never even had a swing set either, so thanks for the idea. :) I love the pict of the girl in your header and love your music. I need to get caught up on everyone again with their blogs, I have been slackin.

Nice Krusti! I am happy to hear your kids finally have a swing set!! Hope no one falls off the fort!! Keep Guy out of there when he hasnt slept for 3 days. That could get interesting!! Of course as long has he has that beer for his horses he should be fine!!

That looks like so much fun, maybe when we get back to the lower 48 we can finally get a swing set again. It is pointless to have one under 2 feet of snow!
