Swing on

Roy and Rayanne came over today to drop off their wedding gift, a brand new swing set they made themselves (we have awesome and talented friends)

Since it is easier to move in pieces, there was some assembly required.

First Rayanne laid out the supports so Roy could add the cross piece that holds them in the A shape.

 Once that was done I helped stabilize the top piece and Roy and Rayanne worked on A frame around it.

Then they did the other side.

Next was adding some bracing pieces to support the top post and hung the swing.

 And lastly Roy shaved off the little bits of the A that stuck up above the top post so that everything was neat and tidy.

And voila! We have a swing. We did move it from the driveway but are still debating its permanent home. Swings like a dream though and we are super excited about it. Thanks again to Roy and Rayanne for such an awesome wedding gift!
