For our last date night, Darren and I built a fort. You know, sheets, blankets, couches. Well, Darren said he always used chairs. But we turned our sofa and love seat back to back and built quite a nice little fort. I don't remember it being that easy. Perhaps we didn't actually move furniture. I remember a lot of draping and using clothes pins and piles of books to hold up the ceiling.
We had a little cake (thanks, Mom) and ice cream in our fort, then read to each other from a book we started a little while back. We left the fort up so that Davis could play in it the next morning. Davis thought it was the coolest thing ever and so I had another mini-date with Davis and we had a snack and read books in the fort, too.

oh nice! 2 uses out of the fort. what a fun idea. growing up we had a used set of encyclopedias that was great for holding up the sheets in the fort. thanks for sharing! see you next week.

oh this is so cute! I used to LOVE making these as a kid...tried to convince hubby...he turns me down each time!
That is an awesome idea! It's fun getting to act like kids again. :) And I love the double bonus of leaving it up for the kids!
