Building a cabin

Today was such a beautiful day to be outside, the boys and I decided to build a cabin.  So we went into the basement strorage room and hauled up some lumber, logs, siding, roofing materials, a chimey, some windows and a hammer and screwdriver and got to work on the plans.

the builders assembling the walls...


our client had a hard time being patient for the roof...


And here is our final product.  Pretty great huh?  Max LOVES it, and it's right out on our deck so close to the kitchen for him to play.  We had this same cabin set up in the basement for Tommy and Drew, then again for Jack...this is it's first time outdoors, but the basement has since filled up with a pool table, a ping pong table and some exercise machines.  So this time we opted for the outdoors.

I think it will be so much fun for Max.



We had fun building it.  But we had even more fun watching Max's excitement with it all!
