Our New Playhouse

In order to try and organize our garage before winter, we built some new shelves on Saturday, November 1st. They were originally going to hold the fall decorations I posted about earlier and the other ones from other holidays and seasons that we end up buying, but instead Kenny came up with a great idea (my husband always has great ideas, this one is actually pretty good.) He thought the kids would love having a playhouse in the garage. So for about 10 extra dollars he built a ladder leading to the top shelf and a railing to go around the top. The kids absolutely love it. Ben wanted to spend the night there, but decided it was a little too noisy (the wind was blowing the garage door.) He did, however, eat his breakfast in the playhouse the next morning. It's gotten a lot of use from both our kids and their friends. I guess if we need more storage we'll have to build more shelves. But, if you ever want an inexpensive playhouse, here you go.

Gracie loves the playhouse too. (She's not allowed up without Mom or Dad.)


Sarah Kate was in the shower so she didn't get to be in the pictures, but Ben and Hannah sure loved it.
