My wife received a 6 by 3 storage shed for Christmas as a family gift. While on Christmas vacation I dug a 1'+ deep whole in our sloped back yard, set cinder blocks into the whole, leveled the earth then put in a layer of sand. My wife and son leveled the sand and put in paver stones.
Today my mother and father stopped by to help me build the shed. My dad is extremely talented when it comes to this sort of project. We pulled up the paver stones and did an extra hour or two of work getting them more level. My wife and son did an excellent job, but with some expert guidance from my dad we were able to get improve upon the foundation a bit.
The shed went together rather quickly, in just a few hours.
During both phases of construction it was very wet and muddy. My boots look like I had walked through a swamp. Below are photos showing the completed shed. It looks crooked (but level) due to the planks of wood we have around it, but it's both straight with the fence and house and quite level.
I've also included pictures of the yard and deck which are covered in mud.

I wanna come play in your back yard! Your kids have cool toys! hehe
I assume they are for the kids anyway :P
I'm glad you approve of the toys. My wife has worked very hard to clean the mud off the deck. One of the kids was cleaning their shoes out there this morning and I felt bad after how hard my wife worked the first time. I suppose we can clean it again.
The kids love the toys in the backyard. (so do I)
