Project Complete!

We had many helping hands as we built this fort. Hayden and Tyler were great helpers. We also appreciated the help from Grandma and Grandpa Bingham and Aunt Kayla.
One requirement for being a Mom.....You have to be able to carry multiple things.

We dug out two foot holes for the posts.


Tyler was searching for the "China Man". I don't think we dug far enough.

I had to be very patient while they hammered. The thought often crossed my mind that I would be done with that board and on to the next before they finished this one nail. But they were great helpers and I appreciated that!

Hayden hammering

Look at those awesome stairs! Thanks Grandpa! You are a handy person to have around.

Aunt Kayla and I made a cute fence in the front for Genevieve.(Nice face, Hayden!)

It seemed as though I was painting for days......oh, wait, I was! Every nap Genevieve took was spent painting and hammering.


THE FINISHED PRODUCT
Did you notice the cool bucket they can pull up? And the fancy flower boxes? (I did those all by myself)
