A new addition to the playground tree -- rings!!!
These should beef up the kids' upper bodies even more than rope swinging and the monkey bar (aka my nice swing that's been hijacked). Evan wants to learn to do the Iron Cross, so we'll see how much stronger he gets.
Chloe really loves the new rings too and did lots of tricks herself; too bad I was putting together a snack while she showed off so no photos. She did all the same things Evan did but couldn't do as many repetitions with her little 7-year-old arms. Even still, she keeps up!
This perfect tree in our backyard is the main reason we bought this house and we are thankful every single summer for it's impact on our lives. I know our kids will think of the space under this tree throughout their adult lives as the place they spent their childhood.

Evan is looking so mature at almost 11 years old. With his upper body strength, he's sure to master that iron cross move in the near future! Go, Evan!!
