We've never really had a nice playset for Ashton, but we've really wanted to make this investment. He is the perfect age for an outdoor playset, so we knew the timing was perfect. Also, the playset will be good for Julianna when she gets home.
Honestly, I think Jason and Leigh were just as excited about the playset as Ashton. Both of them went down the covered slide immediately! It has a floored area under the cottage and a picnic table that we can all eat at. When it gets pretty weather, our family eats outside alot, so this is perfect for us.
We were supposed to receive the playset last Friday but it has rained and rained in Middle Tennessee, so we had to keep waiting. Monday was beautiful but delivery had to be scheduled for Tuesday, and of course when we woke-up on Tuesday it was gray again. Ashton prayed (or shall I say begged and pleaded) to God to hold-off on the rain until he could get his playset. He even called his great grandmother Shields in Georgia and asked her to pray for the rain to stop. She promised that she would but Ashton said, "Let's pray now. I don't hear you." Nanny was in th middle of Bi Lo, but she stopped and prayed with him immediately...this request totally made her day!
It's still been raining most of this week, so Ash has only played on it a couple of times. He has big plans for today and right now, it's beautiful outside so he should have a great day of outdoor fun!
