It started in four large boxes packed tightly with cedar. Mike spent the first day just sorting a couple boxes out into piles with the same number/letter on them so that he could start putting it together.
The beginnings of a long project...and that is Mike's electric hand drill which has since become one of the most useful tools we own now that we own a home. He got it from my parents for Christmas 2 years ago and hadn't used it much until we started on the house and now he uses it almost daily. Thanks mom and dad!
It has levels!!!
The roof is starting to form...
The roof was almost completed but we had to borrow a neighbor's ladder to finish the back part since our 4' ladder wasn't tall enough...or maybe Mike wasn't tall enough...or both. :) The girls were getting so antsy to play on the playset and loved watching/helping their dad along the way.
As you can see the roof is now complete along with the slide and picnic table.
I forgot to take a picture of it completed but here is one where you can see the swings attached and Jade's blanket was drying out on the rockwall that is built on next to the slide, shading the picnic table. It took 8 days to complete and that was working on it for 2 weekends and every night Mike got off work until he couldn't see anymore because it was too dark. 
We are super exited to have it completed and the girls play on it all the time. THANKS DAD!!!
