Trip to grandparents and playset assembly...


















Last weekend we travelled to my parents with my friend Aline for lake fun and the assembly of a "playset." It was really our last trip of the summer to Charlotte so us girls really enjoyed it. I, for one, did not do very much 'assembling.' Being 9 months pregnant and all. Great excuse. Well, so the playset with an estimated 6 hours of assembly for 2 people ended up taking 4 people pretty much 72 hours to put together. Truthfully it should be called a playground, because the thing is HUGE. It was still not done when we left and my poor dad had to finish it himself. Thank you Daddy! Among other things, this playset has a treehouse, a crow's nest, a telescope, a picnic table, a rock wall... well, you get the point. That is BESIDES all the normal swings and slides and such. Pictures don't do it justice. My parents said the way they picked it out was the found "the biggest one they made." Lol, you know you are in trouble when in the instruction booklet (Which was 54 pages I kid you not) has step one listed as "set out all of your parts on a large field" and step two is " at this point you will be able to determine whether this project should be hired out to a professional team." LOL, can you believe that was actually in the book? Well, so it took a bit longer than expected to put together but will be there for generations to come for all future grandkids, and for Bria to enjoy now. She was so excited about it, she just kept having to check on the progress and declaring it "Bria's" to anyone who would listen. It is her second birthday this Sunday, I cannot believe I have a two year old. I guess that is a pretty good present! We are having a party this Saturday at Dusty's parent's home, I will try to post pictures then. Oh, and it was Dusty's 28th birthday on Sunday, July 26th. Ha, all these birthdays and we will go broke! Hope you guys like the pictures, these are all ones my mom took. I am a pretty bad photographer lol. Love you guys!

Carpeting beetles certainly are a real discomfort in your house. They are in a natural way interested in the natural materials in your house. Should you prefer a confident way they will likely never ever make long term camping, fill up your bedrooms with man-made resources. Make sure your seat upholstery and carpets all consist of artificial resources to repel carpeting beetles. [url=http://www.xxxw12woo.info]p5556ry[/url]
