Making a fun project!

So today we decided to try something at Grandma's house and we spent the afternoon making two tents. MSD and I got the wood and put them together and Grandma Nancy and I sewed a couple of old sheets she had as the covers. We think they turned out pretty cool!

Here's a few pictures of the finished projects:

Two tents, one for home and one for Grandma's house!
My inspiration for this project was the following websites:

This was a super fun project that took us just the afternoon to get together. Nemo took a look at the tents and had a good time running through them with her toys. I'm excited for her to play with it as she gets older. I always loved tents as a kid and this one is awesome because we can fold it up when we aren't playing with it.

Here's a few pictures from Christmas Eve....
