"They do now, hot lips!"
(10 pts for anyone who can name that obscure movie quote)
Thank you Dennis, Joey, and Margaret for your inspiration to build a fort. We did. We used no less than a combination of a dozen extra sheets, blankets, and bedcovers. We used all of our chairs, a bar stool (or should I say Bahr stool), a laundry basket, a table, and all sorts of other furniture.We used doors, window frames, and built-in screws in the wall.We even used a broom and an ironing board! We hooked the various pieces together with rubber bands and safety pins.
And our fort even had carpet! And, well, since our TV was in there, we had at least one major appliance, too!
We made it for a fun date night, with treats and everything. After crawling in, I read one of my favorite short stories to Jacob. "A Tale Tell Heart," by Edgar Alan Poe. Whoa, scary! And then he tried reading another short story to me, but . . .we started falling asleep.

| The underside. Hey, you can even see the sun from here! |

| Jacob's preferred treat, of course. (Thank you Europe!) |
Goodbye, then, to our FORTuitous adventure! =)
"Dennis the Menace" - I get the 10 points! And it was a way fun fort. :)
