Steven and I watched our nephew Robert overnight a few weekends ago. During the day, Robert asked if we could make a fort. My first thought was, "Oh great. How in the world are we going to do that?" Then, my inner child swooped in and all these many memories I have of making forts when I was little flooded my memory. I got really excited really quick. I think I blew my nephew away. I started producing sheets and blankets and barstools and boxes and heavy things to keep things in place at lightning speed. I think I was more excited than he was. We put it together, and he commented that he had never made such a big fort before. I was pretty proud of myself. There were 2 entrances along with 2 halls that led to the large inner room. Needless to say, I could really feel my imagination emerging. We had a blast! We played board games and watched TV in our fort...all while Cody was sleeping of course. I knew that as soon as Cody came downstairs, the fort wouldn't stand a chance. I was right. Here are some pictures to prove my turning into a kid for a day (or at least an hour). If you haven't made any forts lately, I highly recommend it! Good times!

way to have fun! I loved building forts as a kid! The kids have built some doozies..Not as fun to clean up! But soooooo much fun to play in!
Looks like fun, you did a great job!!!
How great!! That brings back many memories of Joseph!!! He was the king fort builder!
Nice One...I used to be the premo fort builder but I kinda forgot about them till your blog. Well done
That looks like it was a lot of fun! Matt really gets into building forts too - he's been known to rearrange furniture, nail blankets into the walls, and enlist the help of fishing poles and broom handles to achieve the perfect fortyness.
Very impressive. I'm sure you're the favorite Aunt now.
