Today I had some free time and was driving by my elementary school and the playground caught my eye... and I HAD to give it a try!

Well... I FIT on the slides... I was able to hold on to the handle thing and hold myself up, riding across... AND .... most of all... I fit and didn't break the swing!! I have always been afraid of swings because I fear I'll break it. At 300lbs, my butt wouldn't even fit on the dang swing!

I was out there by myself in dress pants and heels, enjoying the HECK out of it. A dad and his two kids came there... must have thought I was crazy, lol

So here's a photo of me (cause you know I won't post without a photo!):

I am heading to the kiddy park today with my boys. I know what you mean when I was there the other day I couldn't help but swing on the swings and go down a slide. Funny thing was I fought how hot the slides can get. Thanks for sharing it made my day. And I just love this pic of you on the swings.

Love it! Tire swings are my FAVORITE, 'cuz if you launch just right you can twirl and twirl and twirl until you don't know which way is up!!!

No, seriously, I LOVE IT! And, I love that when I swing on the regular swings, the whole friggin' contraption doesn't pump and sway as if it's gonna tip clean over!
