Black and White Wednesday {Fort in the living room}

On Saturday we woke up to snow. The house was chilly and gray and a little gloomy. E and I joked a couple of times that we should just get out the Christmas tree to cheer things up.

Instead James and I made a fort while E showered. It was James's first homemade fort and he was loving it. He helped me with the placement of blankets, sheets and towels and went in and out over and over squealing.

As soon as E emerged from the bathroom James could not wait to show him the fort. They read quite a few books inside while I sat on the sidelines soaking it all up: all this wonderfulness.
We made it quite large, with sleeping quarters and everything.
James loved to enter and exit the fort by crawling under the chair's legs.
