More new real estate!


During our OFF-TRACK time, we got spring fever pretty bad. The weather started to warm up and we ventured out into our newer and WAY bigger back yard, and it had to be done... we definitely needed a play/club house back there.

Mom salvaged some used wood from an old deck and after searching far and wide on the internet, finally found a plan she thought was within her realm of carpenter skills. Despite the instructions being completely arbitrary & the cut & supply list incomplete, we put together a pretty sweet place indeed! EVERYONE helped, including the twins, and we found out that Brock is VERY tool savy! The kids (all of them) LOVE it! They often eat their lunch and/or dinner in it together and imaginations are expanding! Hooray! Now if we could just figure out how to open our pool! :)
