Fort!


009
I am not sure where she got the idea, but Finley requested that we build a fort one day after nap time.  For all you fortbuilders out there, a Snuggie is perfect for a fort.  The arms help anchor it and it is the lightweight enough to stay in place.  The Snuggie was originally purchased for a Snuggie Christmas party, but it really has come in handy more than I ever thought it would.  Finley took all her animal friends inside her fort with her along with a slew of toys for everyone to play with.  I was not allowed in the fort with her, my role was to bring more toys and more animals.  Both animal blankets made by Grandma served as walls for the animals inside.  Building forts is a favorite childhood memory of mine.  I remember building a huge fort in our next door neighbor's basement, we even had a television in one of the rooms (yes, it had rooms!)
