WARNING!!!
Picture overload ahead
I know I have been a total slacker this past week on posting new stuff but I have a great excuse. Promise!!!
When I was in Pennsylvania last October Mike had a great idea and turned a huge closet into a fun fort for the boys. A pirate ship to be precise. I was super excited about this new fort and told Mike I would be happy to paint it and make it a little more "Pirate-y".
Well, I did finally finish painting it and it only took me 5 months! But I must say, "Yaaaaarrrrrrrrrr, she looks grrrreat!"
And the boys love it!
First we started with a huge closet that we didn't know what to do with...
Then this happened...
Yes, those are toys and other junk under the fort. I'm not THAT great! :)
We still have to put the trap door in so the boys can use this for sleepovers. Plus I need to take 10 minutes and clean up the paint that I dripped on the deck of the 'ship'. I was just in a hurry to get this post up so you didn't all think I was giving up after the blog war!

Oh WOW! Mom of the year award or what??!
Your boys are loving it I bet!
I am truly impressed.
P.S. Oh right...can't forget Mike. Yes you get credit too Mike for building the fort and for your great idea. : D
Okay, that looks awesome. I can already see capt. Jack (aka Walker) and his trusty sidekick Will turner (aka Porter) playing in their little quiet voices...Ai, ai Matey!
Hey, that looks great. I 'll send my boys over to walk the plank and find scurvy wenches. Good job
Are you kidding me? You just don't stop, do you? That is the funnest thing I've ever seen. I wish we had the creative genius that you and Mike have. Way to go! I love it!! You never cease to amaze ;)

Gavin would love that. What a fun idea. Lucky boys!
What fun and where in the world do you find the time? I wish we were staying in our house long enough to do something with the fort under our stairs!
How awesome! Your kids are SOOOO lucky.

Cool Job Karli, you too Mikey. That looks way cool. Yeah, you never do cease to amaze your followers.

Wow lucky boys! Such a good paint job too. That is such a creative use of that space.
