Leigh's Playhouse by olivetreeann

Leigh's Playhouse

One of our reasons for visiting this weekend was to present Leigh with her official birthday present. So here's the story from top left to bottom right: 1) Hmmm...what could this be? 2) Ripping the "elegant" newspaper wrapping paper. 3) It's a playhouse you color yourself! 4) Mommy and Leigh read about how the house gets put together. 5) Coloring! 6) Let's see what it looks like! 7) Grammy helped with the coloring. Can you tell which part she did? 8) Peeking through the window. 9) Leigh's Rainbow House finds a permanent home in Leigh's room.

It was really fun to color with Leigh. She couldn't wait to bring her toys and things inside. Looks like this little house will be loved for as long as the cardboard holds up!
cute collage! and such a fun gift!

@geertje I'm not usually an "impulse" shopper, but I knew the moment I saw it, this was a gift for Leigh! We did have such fun coloring it!
November 8th, 2011  
@olivetreeann Oh, I love those moments when you find a wonderful gift! I can imagine that you knew this was it!

Fabulous collage. It all works so well portraying the happy occasion.

@potsbypam Thank you Pam! It really is a great idea. I was really happy that Becky (my daughter-in-law) loved it too.
@michaelelliott Thanks Michael. It was fun to photograph the different phases over the weekend. There is still plenty left to color but that's fine. It doesn't have to all be colored in at once.
November 9th, 2011  
Oooh I want to get one of those for my granddaughter Maddie. I,ll check out CVS.

@sarasdadandmom Thank you Terry. I thought it was one of the most clever things I'd seen for kids. We did have a lot of fun coloring it together.

I apologize for being behind in my viewing- once again! But I'll be doing my best to catch up with everyone's shots for the rest of the week!
