Saigel's Swing Set

Saigel got a swing set as an early birthday present this year. Much thanks to her PawPe and MeMaw (my mom and dad) who drove to IL at a moment's notice (even missing a church event I might add) to take this totally apart in the freezing cold. Then they drove it all the way to AR for us and helped us set it up a few weekends ago. Doug has spent every dry moment since then making it look brand new and I think he has done an awesome job!! He is such a handy guy to have around!!
This was really the first day that Saigel has gotten to play on it for any length of time and she had a ball. The first time down the slide was a little traumatic as the thing is super fast (I think she may have gone airborne!!). She cried when she landed on her butt at the bottom of the slide, but I went in and got a pillow to put at the bottom for the next trip down and she has loved it since then!
We had a great time this evening in our own personal backyard "park"!! Doug and I even went down the slide but Lord willing none of you will ever see those pics :)
