Grannie and Paw-Paw surprised me Thursday with two big heavy boxes for my birthday present. It's a new wooden playset! But, it was all in pieces! Friday, Daddy spent all evening framing a play area for me, so that once the set was built a mulch surface could be put down around it. He worked really hard and barely missesd the rain that night.
Around the time Daddy finished building the frame, Grannie, Paw-Paw, Parin, Aunt Emmy, and Uncle James arrived! We all had dinner, then I went to bed - Friday was a long busy day for me! That night Daddy, Parin, and Paw-Paw spent hours sorting all the parts and getting everything ready to build the playset the next day.
Saturday was full of hard work! Daddy, Paw-Paw, and Uncle James worked really hard building my new playset. When Parin and Aunt Emmy returned from Katherine's dance recital in Mandeville, they gave me my birthday present from them - a new picnic table!
I watched them building the playset from our living room window.
Grannie took me into the backyard to see my new playset!
Paw-Paw and Parin helped me onto the slide for the first time.
I'm a master at swinging - it's so fun! 
Weeeee! The slide is great!
And I'm such a big boy sitting at my new table!
Daddy did a great job framing a playground surface for me, too!
