Phase 1 of the playground

We promised Megan a playground when we first started looking at new houses. It got to the point that when we walked through houses she would see a playground in the next yard and say "Is that my playground?" So she was very excited to shop online for her playground. Once it was delivered, we needed to do some prep work before it could be built. First we needed to level the ground so keep things safe.
Megan was adorable and "helped" Mark move every load of dirt from the back of the yard to the area we were going to build on.

She is a little worker! Notice the shorts and t-shirts...
...because 2 days later Megan was in her monkey suit and wearing a froggy winter hat. Yep, Michigan weather went from close to 80 degrees down to 45 degrees in a matter of days. But since Megan had already been in shorts she would not put her winter coat on so this lovely fashion statement was our compromise.
Megan watching Daddy drill the holes to secure the landscaping timbers to the ground. Megan wanted a tool, so she went in the garage and found her rake.
Alright, she has her eye protection now we can build! More pictures coming soon...
