Lowe's has a bi-weekly "Build and Grow" program for kids. This was their first project, a fortune teller. Inside the hole is a dice that says things like "yes", "no", or "maybe". Think Magic 8 Ball...The kids loved it! They have their own goggles and apron now to help on construction projects.
During Spring Break Emma and Cosette started work on a cardboard doll house. This is what we came up with. Cosette has had fun with it, especially now she has a special place to play.
This is the latest in Wood construction endeavors. We'd seen this concept in a picture, but the bed would have been $600. Instead, we found the bunk bed on Craig's List and made our own table/chairs for under the bed. The table comes down and will lay flat in the open section. The cushions (which is the last thing to do) will slide down into the twin bed mattress."Rob never ceases to amaze Emma in his ability to look beyond a simple purchase. He is a master craftsman (in his own mind)"

What wonderful happenings at your house. I love the play house. I had one when I was small and wore it out. I love the bunk bed idea. What a cool invention. I am impressed with Rob's skills also. You both are so imaginitive and are not afraid to try alot of things. Keep it up. the baby is right around the corner. Hooray.
Wow everything looks great! Is Craig's List the fun to search? I love it. Great work on the bedroom.
Amazing! Amazing! Amazing! All of it!
