Fort Griffin.


Here it is folks ... Fort Griffin! It was quite a tedious task to get this thing together. We bought the kit the day before Mother's Day and it was officially finished and play-worthy the day before Father's Day. I have so many pictures of it under construction ... but I thought I would share only the finished pictures today.

Mike worked soooo hard on this project. It came wood stained, but he decided before putting it together he would weather/water proof each wooden piece before putting it together. There were 1,000s of pieces to this set!! It came with a manual with 99 steps to completion.

This picture (above) shows Mike just finishing it up ... the tools are still everywhere. Mike is giving Griffin his first ever swing on the set. That's my boys!


And this is Fort Griffin minus the hubby, the boy and the tools.
