Rope swing

It shouldn't come as any surprise that Aaron was the one who was sold on buying our house first. One look at this gigantic playroom and he was ready to move in! I love that he is always coming up with ways to entertain the kids. Last weekend we were at his mom and dad's and he saw this huge rope sitting on the floor. He asked his dad if he could have it. He knew immediately what he wanted to do.

He bought the supplies at Menard's and went to work yesterday morning. The kids have been so excited all week.
As soon as he was done, they had a few of their friends over to play on it. They had so much fun swinging, but we've decided we might need to put a timer out there to reduce the fighting (as if that would help!)

Madelyn had so much fun and did really well holding on.

Of course Bruce would love it - he's our little monkey boy!
Will was so proud that he was able to climb to the top and touch the ceiling.
Justin also made it to the top! Thanks Aaron for being such a fun Dad!

OH MY GOSH, your house is so amazing!!!! The boys were DYING looking at your "personal gym"! What a great swing!!! You need some pad under so you don't make any trips to the ER.

Of course you were not the "negative nancy" silly! You are such a good example of a "good mom" for me!!!

What a fun room! Love the swing. I'm surprised you don't have full-court basketball in there. That room is huge!!
