The box

The Friday before General Conference Jared called me and asked if I wanted to drive to his work. He explained that he had some really big boxes that would be so much fun to build a "fort" for our boys to play in over the weekend. Well, the day got busy and I wasn't able to make it down there in time so I figured they would be forgotten. Of course not! Jared decided to find a way to cram them into his little car to bring them home. When he brought them inside I just had to laugh. He already had it all figured out...how he was going to set it up by making a ramp for their cars, a little peek hole, a place to climb in, and all kinds of fun and exciting stuff! Well, even though it took up half of our living room I think the boys had fun.



Jared even got out the crayons and let them color all over the box. Of course Kyson found that coloring on things was great fun and he colored all over the wall and all over the floor! Oops...no more crayons for that little man!
By Sunday afternoon we were tired of it taking over our living room and Jared hauled it to the trash can while the boys took their nap. Oh, it was fun while it lasted!
