The children have been enjoying the new new to us play set. (Thanks Grandma and Grandpa D)
It is so great having a place right outside our door (for the time being) where the children can swing, climb and go up and down a slide. It’s such great fun. The location is perfect too cause it is partly shaded at times which helps with the sun.
Baby Girl is not sure whether she really likes the swing yet. She gets a bit scared at times, but she’s warming up to it.
Mrs. Sayuri and Mr. Happy Feet are great at climbing up the slide. (Do your children do this too?) – They prefer this method as opposed to the normal one. 🙂
Makes me think back to when I grew up… in our backyard we had a metal swing set with a similar set up. I recall so many summer nights spent swinging on it and playing around on it with my brother and neighborhood friends. I am thankful for such a blessing in my growing up. And when my children are older, I hope that they will look back on these days with the same kind of fondness.
It is nice to see pleasant family memories in the making. I especially enjoyed the words about your fond memories growing up. Being with those that we love, is a good thing…
Nice post. I love the picture of Baby Girl.
I love that this isn’t a “new” playset. I think the character of an older playset that has weathered some storms makes is more adventurous. Maybe I’m just being sentimental because it’s been raining all day 🙂
