Forts and Critters

Friday I came from work to a surprise from Taylor....sheets for a fort!  I have been telling Taylor this last month how much I wanted to build a fort with him, so when they were going to throw out surgical sheets at his work because they fell on the floor, he took them home instead.  So say hello to the Duck Fortress:

Above the fort....also, this may be the only time you are thankful for cinderblock walls because you can put duct tape on them and not worry about paint chipping
Entrance
The Love Nest.  Only Ducks Allowed

And of course we had to have a duck signal which Taylor made out of our flashlight/oven light

Cover with saran-wrap and color pink with a duck in the middle

Saturday we both had our own errands and service to do so we didn't see each other all morning but were able to go to my parents for a BBQ.  And after we enjoyed a Saturday BBQ with my parents, we went for a late night donut and slurpee run.  Just because....we missed each other all morning.  And we stayed up until 2 am watching Jack the Giant Slayer too.
Poised to go run to the car to get some slurpee and donuts

And look at this cool leaf-bug I caught Saturday morning with my neighbor kids
The funniest part was when it crawled up him and sat on the back of his head for 20 minutes

I thought that Jack the Giant Slayer movie was interesting. It was funny to me though that the main guy was also the main guy in that Zombie movie too. All I could see Jack as was a zombie.

ha ha I love your fort! You were such a master at that as a kid! Too funny! Reminds me so much of you and Kyle! I love the little extra things like the duck on the light. So creative!!!! That is a cool insect! Looks just like a leaf! I got a One Sweet Slice coupon on FB that if you use my link, we can get some free. I know you like their cupcakes so you may want to spend $10 for $20 worth of treats. I am going to redeem mine when I go see Carlie in October and again in November for Alysia W's birthday. Was Jack the Giant Slayer good? Did you guys end up helping move Taylor's brother on Sunday? What's his brother's name again? Hope you're having a great day! I have some food for you to pick up when you come tomorrow. When do you think you'll come? Can't wait to see you again! Love you! Mom
