After spending way too long debating whether or not to get a Rainbow play system, we finally took the plunge. The installers finished up just as I was getting home from picking up Elijah and Mayci from school. To say the kids (Fritz and Adrian included) were excited would be an understatement.

It was an unusually hot day for February (even by south Texas standards – the high was 83) and all eight kids spent a lot of time outside playing. They were all exhausted by the end of the day. It hasn’t quite sunk in for some of them that the playground is here to stay permanently. Now we just have to get the mulch in place and it’ll be just perfect.
