So the snow is pretty much melted here except for a few shady spots in the yard or where the plows piled it high (and those piles are dirty and gross). I love the way the backyard looks when it snows--our shed looks like a barn, and we had a bunch of fir trees before the last storm broke the branches on a bunch of them. But when it's gray outside, I find myself looking at our old swing set and how old it looks without the summer surrounding it . My rear end hasn't fit comfortably in a seat for years, and we've slowly broken half of the features doing heaven knows what (not recently, mind you). I keep telling my parents they should take it down, but my nostalgic mother will have no parts of it. I'm not about to get on her bad side, but if she just happens to read this maybe she'll consider one of these rockin' backyard swing sets for the endless grandbabies I hear she wants...
And my springtime giveaway ends this Friday! Don't forget to enter if you haven't (details at the top of my sidebar).
Ta for now, my lovelies!
Check out some of the great giveaways here!
I would like to meet the person who doesn't want a castle in their yard, so I could convince them that they need one. Seriously? I think I would live in this.
This might be a bit extravagant...but think of the fun! You could do army/firefighter training on this thing (at least you can in my head)!
Of course...we'd probably kick it old school and simple. Nothing wrong with that :)
You know where I found all these bits of fun? I bet you do...CSN Stores--where else? They have everything from shoes to bags to furniture to fitness equipment and so on. I've read many reviews of their products in blogland, and they have all been positive. And these delightful folks want to give you a chance to win $35.00 to any one of their stores. Interested?
THIS GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED!!! To win, all you have to do is leave a comment here. You can tell me a joke, leave a smiley face, tell me your favorite color, tell me you have nothing to say, anything! Other than that I just need to be able to contact you so leave your email, or make sure I can get to it somehow. Otherwise, you're just going to have wander back here to see who wins (which isn't a bad thing, mind you :) This giveaway is open to US/Canada readers only--sorreeeee--I'd give one to each of you if it were up to me. I'll leave this open until 11:59 pm EST on Friday March 4th, and announce the winner the next dayish. So get those entries in, folks! Good luck!
