Spring Break



Usually I am the one that can't wait to leave town for spring break but this year Justin and I thought it would be fun to stay home and build a "play house" for the kids. We took a vote to see which kids liked that idea. All voted for the "play house" except for Shae. Everywhere we went that week someone would ask us, "what are you guys doing for spring break?" Shae would sadly reply, "building a play house." Even though Shae would have rather done anything else she really got into helping her Dad. She even learned how to use a saw and a nail gun! Way to make your Dad proud Shae! :)

A couple days in to the building the weather turned bad so we took off and went to the movies. But everyday after the kids all helped Justin out in different ways.

Once the outside was finished, me and the girls got to hang the tongue n grove on the inside. Justin would measure and cut the board and Easton would slide it through the window to us and each girl got a section to nail off. I am glad to report that there was no trips to the ER all week!!

Justin worked really hard to get this little house finished so the kids could sleep in it before school started. I do have to say it turned out pretty sweet! I would have died to have had a "play house" like this one!! You guys really do have a GREAT Dad!!
