See our castle!







Last year Uncle Earle and Bryan had this idea to build a castle... It was mainly Uncle Earle's idea for his viking clan. He designed it, supplied the lumber, constructed the frame and Bryan supplied the spray on foam and other industrial coatings. The castle has a front door, a window and is two stories. They had the castle at last years Renaissance Fair and this year they were not able to get it there. (All though it was so cold this year it would have been nice to have it there for shelter!!) Now the castle used to be stored in the yard at our old shop. Now that we have moved the shop we don't have a yard to store it in. So guess where it is??? OUR HOUSE!! It is actually a lot of fun! The neighbors all want to come see it once we put the second floor back on it. But for now our kids have turned it into a castle-club house! Once they are a few years older we will put up a permanent ladder for access to the second story. For now I don't let them on the second story with out daddy... it's pretty tall. (See the picture of the whole castle with Emma on Bryan's shoulders and him holding Elijah? Bryan is standing and he is over 6 feet tall!!) Anyway! Last night Bryan got up there to blow bubbles over the kids and they ended up there with him. You can see over the whole house! It is lots of fun!
