Swinging Siblings

This summer I brought Tanner and Abigail to True Park in Hope, Maine, because they have an infant swing. It is one of the few playgrounds near our home that has one. The Twinkies were so small that I could fit them both in the swing at the same time...they loved it!



Roselyn's Outpost (the second hand shop just down the hill from my house) had one for sale for a few days, but by the time I got down there to check it out...it had been sold. A few weeks later I spotted a Little Tikes Snug 'n Secure Swing in the doorway of Young'uns in Damariscotta when I was dropping off a box of clothing. It looked brand new and was only $9.99...SCORE! I couldn't wait to get it home to show Matt. I encouraged him to hang it up immediately so Tanner and Abigail could swing all day long right at home. He informed me that he would need to buy some chain and other attachments to hang it properly...so it sat on our porch (sad and unused) for almost two months.



This weekend we finally got all the necessary gear to hang the swing...and a second swing was found in the space above Hazel and Rick's (Grammy and Grandpa's) garage. Matt hung them at the end of our porch and Tanner and Abigail have swung in them every day.
