Upgrades

We inherited the swingset in our backyard from the previous owners of our house. It was nice to not have to buy a new one, but it has required considerable repairs, updates and upgrades over the past four years. This is what it looked like when we bought the house:

First upgrade in the summer of 2007. We needed two baby swings! Matt replaced the tarp and ladder and added the woodchips:

In 2008, we replaced one of the baby swings with a big-kid swing:


And this week, Matt straightened and reinforced the main structure, doubled the length of the swing arm, added the support frame and added more wood chips. Now there are two big-kid swings and a twirl-about and there's still the baby swing on the other side. Good job, daddy!
