After taking a couple months off but I finally spent the time to complete the swingset and can now cross this project off my list. When the kids get older, I'll add a tire swing below the tower, replace the baby swings, and add a two person swing in the third position. But for now, the swing set is done.
Most of the swingset was done for the twins first birthday party but there were a few things I needed to do like build a ladder on the back side, a rope ladder, the bars to keep kids from falling out of the tower, and a few stabilizers.
Here is a picture of the completed swingset.
In this picture, you can see the rope ladder I made and the wood ladder entrance to the tower.
Here is the view from our back porch.
Over Christmas, the Baker kids came over to break in the completed swingset. Here is big Cal climbing up the rock wall. He was a little scared but he made it to the top several times.
Will also made it up the rock wall.
Will then showed off his speed by running across our yard.
Ella was an expert at the rope ladder. Her brothers could not make it as high.
Here is a pic of Will trying the rope ladder and Ella going down the slide.
Big will did not want to go any higher than he is right now.

Ella was all over the place on the swingset. It is nice to see that our twins will enjoy it for many years.
Ella was really good on the rock wall. She showed off how she could go up it using the rope and none of the rocks or vice versa by using the rocks and not the rope.
I look forward to my kids being able to play on the swingset like their older cousins.
