We will soon have one of these in our backyard:
Yes, we finally broke down and bought a swing set for Julia (or all of us?). We did a lot of researching, cost comparison and quality comparison. On the recommendations of many other parents/friends, we went with the higher quality and yes, more expensive brand. The cheaper ones just don't compare. Julia had a blast at the swing set stores and we couldn't get her out of there; though Mike and I were having a great time too. We told Julia to play on the super big, elaborate sets because, well, we would never have one of those because they cost about as much as a luxury car with upgrades.
So, in about 2-3 weeks, we will have a swing set similar to the picture above (except with a yellow slide-per Julia's request) and without the rock wall.
Julia is very excited, though I think she has forgotten it is on the way. She did say she was going to play on it with "her cousin Ainsley" and "hold her hand" while she goes down the slide. :)
