Last spring we put a swing set in our backyard and it really transformed our yard from a barely used space to a place that we use all the time now. Soon after our little guy was born Josh had to go on a business trip. I was cooped up in the house with a newborn and 4 yr old pretty much the whole time he was gone, and so after that I decided we HAD to do something to our backyard to make it more kid friendly. The previous owners of our house installed this lovely dog run (sorry this is the only picture that exists of it)
It was really wasted space in our yard, so we decided to put in a swing set and rip this thing out!
She loved to help, and get all muddy and go exploring for bugs.
This was her worm friend for the day she said. She was so excited!
And here is the finished product! It really makes our side yard seem SO much bigger. We still have some work to do on it that has lagged for a while, and my husband insists on making the old dog house a play house for the kids. I think that would be so gross! So for now it just sits there.
And now a few months later and our little baby is big enough to enjoy it too. Our winter has been so mild here that we have been able to get outside and use it all the time!
