The Play House!

Halie has been asking for something to play with outside for awhile now. Since we can't find a swing set that is up to my husband's (quality) standards, we opted to build a sturdy playhouse that will be fun for both of our girls.

Ryan and his dad started it a couple weeks ago, and it's really coming along nicely. It's all framed in. We're going to build some wooden, shudder like windows and a two-part door. We haven't decided yet on regular tar roofing or metal. My husband likes to build things that last 'forever' so he is really putting some thought into this...not like the girls care. It will be here for grand-kids some day I suppose.

We've moved Halie's kitchen, bikes and balls out there and we plan on spending a lot of time playing 'house' this summer. There's a nice, covered porch that I can sit on with a book while the girls make me 'lunch' and bring me 'lemonade'. Next year, Ryan's going to weld some poles together for a nice swing set. Things are coming along nicely.
