Because being parents is not enough for two full time working parents, we decided to take on a DIY project.  We want to give our boys a new playhouse so we did hours and hours of research.  But we kept coming back to the same conclusion - the only way that we would really get what we want would be if were to build it ourselves.  So we are.  We are building a brand new playhouse from scratch.  We are both very handy, but have never quite taken on a project like this.  So here goes nothing! (And keep checking our blog and this site for progress, pictures and all the details of how we build our playhouse.)
