Project completed. Fort, castle, and not sure what you would call it for the sake of fun.

June 23, 2009 Lana

Let’s just say – my hubby did most of this project.
IMG_1788
When asked, “Why?”
IMG_1790
He would answer “Because I love my daughter.”
IMG_1796
Only I know the truth.
IMG_1797
First, he loves to make things.
IMG_1800
Second, we had a lot of leftover wood from another project.
IMG_1801
Thirdly, he loves to make things.
He creates them in is mind and then I make him draw it out because I’m a visual person.
IMG_1802
Fourthly, I critique his ideas and he loves that.
Okay, that is not entirely accurate. He still does what he wants to do and says “wow honey, that won’t really work but good try.”
IMG_1803
Fifthly, did I mention we had a lot of leftover wood?
IMG_1804
Sixthly, he likes the cat, Parker.
Seventhly, he loves the cat, Parker, but won’t admit it.
He says he loves his daughter who loves the cat.
IMG_1811
Eighthly, he wants the cat to quit jumping on his wife’s furniture
.IMG_1812
Ninthly, pet stores are too expensive for cat furniture.
IMG_1813
Tenthly, we had a lot of leftover wood.
 Parker's Castle
Isn’t it pretty? Can’t wait for the exposed wood to be painted black and get some neat feathers attached to it so Parker can attack something other than my toes.
Parker likes it!
Parker is smiling!

Parker does not like the camera and is about to attack it.
Parker is about to make the death jump.
After the last picture, Parker told us she will not play on her new toy unless the camera is put away. So, now we will put the camera away so we can watch her play. Hope you enjoyed our Parker’s new toy.
Blessings to you! You are loved!Linked to:

    I love that your husband made this for your cute kitty, and because he loves his daughter who loves the kitty! Cat furniture is expensive. I think even I could make a cat tree myself.

    My dad made a scratching post. It worked very well, the cats did a great job at scratching the carpeting off it!

    Congrats on your SITS day and I’m thankful my breast cancer was discovered early and my last radiation treatment is today!

    HEy Parker looks just like my babies I have.. We have a feeding perch made out of an old barstool, some sisal rope around the legs for scratching.. I will have to take a picture and let you see. It has definitely gotten it’s wear lol.

    Oh no, you’re now building furniture for your kitty. You all are hooked!! Those premade cat towers are outrageously expensive. One handy husband a lot of leftover wood makes one great cat toy! Congrats 🙂

May the LORD bless you and keep you; May the LORD make His face shine upon you and be gracious to you; May He turn His face toward you and give you peace. Feel free to leave a comment - we LOVE to hear your thoughts! ~Blessings to you!~ ~You are so loved!~ ~Lana (Like Banana)~
