 Posted: 06/10/05 - 12:39 Post subject: Blanket forts, blanket forts!!!
My kids are creating the biggest blanket fort you can imagine! I loved making them when I was a kid.
They are so creative and funny.
They put the fort up...take it down...put it up again...take it down...put it up..
crawl in...
it's all wrong...
take it down...put it up...taking it down as I type.
THEY'VE BEEN IN THAT THING ONCE!!!
They must have my OCD qualities of household perfection going.

HA! Love 'em, STILL. I was the master builder when I was young. There would be full cities covering our basement, and I slept more down there than in my room back in those days!
Mike is to the age of loving that stuff too. Think we'll put one up when I get home from work!

Awesome!
My kids won't have a fort to sleep in by the time they're finished! They're going to have those blankets in threads by the time they're done with them out of sheer frustration of getting it right!
I'll put the scissors up and out of reach, in case they feel the need to shred everything to pieces.
Funny thing though. They'll start all over again with it on Monday.

They'd just look at that as an extreme home makeover.
Nice to see their imagination nice and well.

Thanks. Right now there's construction difficulty. They cannot agree on the design.
Does this mean that it's time to get an HOA involved??

I'm sure they're doing a lot of that under the blankets as well.
