backyard workout center

The kids asked if they could 'have' part of the backyard to make a workout center. They have ideas of what they want and how to do it. We think this is great! Now to plan it out. They want a chin up bar. This is nothing new! There is no where in the house to put one. A dummy to practice sword fighting. We can make one of those. They use wood practice swords not the real ones. lol It is really fun! I can't wait to get started.

Sounds like fun, you'll have to take a pick on how it all turns out, I may have a go myself!
I can see the challenges now, who does it quicker, who does it girlier who does it with ..... LOL

Hopefully we can start on it this weekend! It has rained every weekend for almost a month. I will be making a practice dummy for the kids to sword fight with. Also will be good for kickboxing. Need dh's help with the frame but I can do the rest.

We planned on working on this project today. Dh is on call and has been out three times today. We did yard work with him and without him. lol If it doesn't rain tomorrow and if he doesn't get called out. I bet we work on it next weekend.
