Yes, I used part of our tax refund and purchase the swing set from costco! The best part was suprising my hubsand when he got home thrusday night by having the 5 boxes and slide sitting in his parking spot. We quickly learned that not one part came pre-assembled. I honestly had no idea how many parts a little swing set could have. I wanted to post pictures of the hard working crew we had here sunday who to put this bad boy together but alas my computer is being weird so I was limited. Maybe latter I will post a pictures of the construction.
We had Matt, Nono (Grandpa), and Mario working on it Sunday from 11:00am-7:00pm. Uncle Jon came over and helped out in between working on Taxes and our good friend Rob showed up around 2ish to lend a hand. The boys only had one major error but manged to solve the problem quickly, by flipping an entire side of the playground around. Since it took until 7:00pm to finish the kids didn't get a chance to try it out until tonight. Boy were they excited!! Again we found ourselves outside until there was no light left. The best part of it all is my Husband still loves me, even though ever part of his body is sore. Before ending this post I want to say a big thank you to our work crew, with out you the playground would still be in boxes. Also a thank you to Uncle Trevor and So-To-Be-Auntie Jen who cooked a fabulous beef rib dinner for us all to enjoy after a hard day work.
Thank You Everyone For Your Help!!

Tracy, you are hilarious! Matt really is husband of the year. And...our economy thanks you. You did exactly what you were/are supposed to do with your tax refund. Spend/spend/spend.
My knees are still sore! =)
Ah-ha, I found you! That swing set looks pretty darn fun; too bad I live to far away to come play.
I love to spend! The economy loves me!! So glad you found us Rachel!!
