World's-Coolest-Dad

I don't think my kids even realize how cool their dad is. They probably think all dads are funny and good humored and love to wrestle and tease, but he did something extra fun for them this weekend. We were down in our unfinished basement trying to get it cleaned up and organized a bit when he came up with the idea to make them a fort in the area underneath the stairs. Austin has lots of ideas that he talks about for a long time, but never really happen, at least not for quite awhile. But a few hours later I came down from putting Natalie down for a nap and found him stapling cardboard boxes all over to form the walls, ceiling, and floor. He also used a piece of plexiglass to make a window and a big old mirror as one of the walls.
