A little peek at why the inside of my house is a dusty mess!

For Murphy's birthday, and for the enjoyment of the other kids (and their friends!) Grandma Cheryl ordered a play set for the back yard.  We have a "swing set" that was here when we bought the house, in addition to a "play structure" Trevor disassembled...thankfully...because it was scary and even housed a bee hive. 

The swings have been great up until a few months ago when the frame decided it wanted to be diagonal and the kids stub their toes on the grass every time they swing.  Plus, anyone else see a problem here?  Two swings, three kids.  It doesn't add up. 

Wednesday the kids' dreams will come true when the new swing set is installed.  Three swings, slide, monkey bars, rock wall (and no chain climbing things or anything else they can fall from)...I may not ever get the kids inside again! 

Today the demo-ed area will be boxed in and filled with tire chips for the structure to sit on and for safety.  We'll have a park in our backyard!  For now (and for the last week) I have not enjoyed vacuuming and mopping three times a day because of what the wind (and little feet) carry in the house from the backyard.  Patience...it's all worth it!
