Jayna and Julian's new Playhouse!
So my Mom took the kids on a walk in our neighborhood last week, and Julian goes straight into another person's yard into a little playhouse that was on their front lawn. My Mom tries to lure him out saying the typical : " Oh that's not ours..." and the guy who lives there comes out. My Mom talked to him and said, " Oh my grandkids just love this little house!" And the guys says, "You can have it. I just moved in, and don't have kids. Go ahead, take it anytime!" So my Mom comes back with the kids and is all excited cause she scored us a free playhouse that was about $300 new! So, that's great I thought! Andrew and I had wanted to build a playhouse for the kids, but that wouldn't have happened till next summer, and they are at such a good age now for one. So, a few days later the Elders came over for dinner, and perfect timing, they helped Andrew moved the playhouse:)
Andrew sprayed it all down, and clean it up, pulled ivy off the side and a bunch of moss and cobwebs. He went and got some plywood and pallets for free and made a little foundation for it to sit in about 15 minutes, then put it back together and voila! We need to re-stain and paint it when the weather gets nice outside!
Our little playhouse for Jayna and Julian:) Typical hoodie pull from Jayna haha
I found a little metal bowl that fits perfectly in the sink, and I have a few ideas to fancy it up a little bit. Fun times ahead in this little playhouse:) Here is a pic through the window of our neighbor, Sophia, Jayna's good friend:)
Being a kid is really magical, and it's so fun to watch them play. I remember what it was like actually, and things that I loved to do. Wouldn't it be so cool to go back in time and be a kid the same age as your children? haha. Nice wish;)
