So we built a new house......

Here it is!!




Here is the proud owner!


We got this for Rylee for her birthday in June and we finally got around to putting it up. The box said that it would take 2 people 2 hours to put it together. Were they wrong or what. Dustin and I worked at a pretty fast rate and it took us 2 hours a day for 3 days. It was worth all the time and effort when we saw the look on Rylee's face when it was complete. It has been really hard to get her to come into the "Big House" (as she calls it) all she wants to do is stay in her little house. She has even enjoyed her lunch out there a couple of times. It is going to be so nice when we get the fence up because I will be able to let her go out there when she wants and I won't be so worried!
We have done a little decorating and have a little more planned. Here are some pictures of the before and after of the flower box.

Before


After

We got the flowers at Porter's on clearance. They were 10 for $1!! We were going to get her some real plants but I was sure that I would kill them through the winter and then we would have to buy new ones. This way I won't kill them and they will be beautiful all year long!
