The Project Begins

Well, after three years of promising the girls that I would build them a playhouse, we finally got started in late September. I invited some of the church friends over to help. Robin, Roddy, and Mike joined me and the girls to get phase one done. Here is a picture of Madison and Mollie digging the holes around the posts for concrete:

After 4 hours of work, we had a platform about 7 feet off the ground measuring 8 feet by 16 feet. It is made up of 8 4x4's, 4 sheets of plywood, and a whole bunch of 2x6's. The girls had a wonderful time helping, and here they are celebrating the completion of phase 1:

Phase two will commence this coming weekend. We hope to get the walls and roof up. The big decision on our plates this week is how many windows to put it!

Till next time,
