Finally! A Home for Dogs

While Matthew and I were away, relaxing, there was some serious work going on in our home. It's not easy leaving a headstrong child and an adoring grandmother alone for several days. Receiving texts dealing with construction, decorating and wallpaper make the absence even scarier. Thankfully, these terms concerned a model "Home for Dogs" and my home was only a backdrop for their creation.

But, in no way am I trying to downplay the creativity and excitement regarding this cooperative project. Anna Cate was so excited that she sent us a video of the construction so that we could see all of their "hard work" and everyday sent us updates regarding their progress. She often sent these while her Gigi was on the phone, not paying any attention to her, so she reported (wink, wink). But, I think that Gigi was pretty excited about it too considering we called one night after AC had gone to bed and she was working on it alone.

So, here are some pictures of their masterpiece....


Note the bedrooms upstairs, the actual wooden cabinets and the dogs watching the big screen television (definitely her father's daughter).
