We picked up a swing at IKEA last April when we were in Utah. And it has sat in the packaging in the basement ever since. Doug decided to hang it up last night and oh what fun they are having!
I don't think we'll ever want to finish the basement at this rate. Where would we put the bounce castle? The tents? Tunnels? Punching bag? And now the swing? (and for that matter, where would i put all of our miscellaneous crap? Where would i throw the stuff i don't know what to do with blindly down the stairs?). Not to mention they can ride their bikes and scooters down there in the winter (which is fast approaching!).
Our old king-sized mattress has come in handy (and the nicely padded walls!). Now if Keegen could just remember to NOT stand up right after he falls off since the swing is still swinging...

Hello! Love the lil' monkeys! I want a swing in our basement...WAIT!...What? No basements in the 'peake? What? I will dream... Side note, we drove by our old Moly Drive house and saw the kids' swing still hanging. Kids were shocked that the people left it up (2 sales later!). Wish we could go meet up on a Starbucks run right now...oops! 10pm--I think they're closed. Some day we'll visit. Hugs...
P.S. Love the blog.
Your basement is so much more fun that ours! I can't ever bring my kids there. They will never want to leave.
