Tent City

Everyone knows that Aunt Denise gives the best gifts - in part, because she's good at it and in part, because she just can't help herself.  The tent/tunnel combination that she gave the girls for Easter is just a small piece of evidence of her genius - she wrangled it (free) out of the Scholastic Book guy that frequents her school.  Seriously - who else could do that??  As one might imagine, it was a huge hit with the girls, so much so that they demanded that we set it up as soon as we got back from New Hampshire last Sunday - despite the fact that they (and us) were exhausted and despite the fact that it was past their bedtime.  Lee, ever patient, complied and the girls were delighted, to say the least!!

Eagerly anticipating the finished product.

It's not as big as we thought that it would be, but it still takes up a lot of room.
