Building a Playhouse

Some of you may remember Katie's post a few months ago about our search for a playhouse, then finally buying one, but now you finally get to see the construction process. As a video geek, I of course insisted that we document the entire process, and our camcorder (a Sony DCR-HC90 for the other video geeks out there) has a very nice time lapse function.

You'll notice that we were almost done with the roof when we stopped for the night, then there's a slight pause before the video resumes. That's because we realized that we were putting the roof on upside down, and at that point it was about 11:30pm so we decided to stop and finish it the next evening.

For those of you interested in the Woodridge Playhouse Leisure Time Products (Item #1150), it was fairly easy to assemble, and the instructions were actually fairly good. The materials seem to be of fairly decent quality, so hopefully it will hold up for quite a while.
