Well, I've never built a thing in my whole life. I'm a pianist and I'm in marketing...never had need for a drill or saw.

However, once my baby chicks started to turn into teenagers (it's so fast!) I hustled outside and put this together. I'm feeling good about it. Hopefully my girls will feel the same way. :) And...hopefully all of the really truly talented carpenters out there aren't cringing at the design.

Paint and roofing go up later this week. Then it's done! Oh yes...it has a name... Downton Abbey. :)
