Story In Pictures: C-R-E-A-T-E

What started out as a normal family evening together
full of Superheroes 
and Fairies
turned into an entire evening project
which included a complete transformation
(and takeaway of 2 major storage spaces in our house...
oh well, it's for a good cause:)
of the little crawl space under our stairs
and turned it into a "Secret Hideout"!
With a little help from dad to line the walls with carpet scraps
and Christmas lights
and a mother's touch of organization and decoration
complete with indoor/outdoor communication
(ie soup can telephones!)
we have created the coolest environment
for any imagination!

(Andrew, I can just see our "AT" meetings happing in this crib!  
Chill out ya'll, Andrew is my little brother...)

  2. The only problem is that only so many little people can fit in there...hmmm.

    We may have to ban it for play days:)

  3. You forgot to mention that it's a great hiding place for mommies when they need to count to 10! We had a place like that growing up and called it "the cubby hole", I know, very original!!
