Cubby Cuteness

Grace, Charlotte and Lucinda received a very exciting Christmas present last month ...

... a cubby house!

Our new cubby house.

We checked out quite a few different (and expensive!) options before Neil found the 'Malibu Mansion' from Design A Cubby. He took the girls with him to have a look at it. Given that Grace's favourite colours are pink and yellow, he didn't really stand a chance!

He purchased the display model, which meant it was a little cheaper, was available before Christmas, and was already painted. So it was a win for everyone!

Daddy and Grandpa working on construction.

The cubby house was delivered in pieces, and when Grandpa arrived the week before Christmas he helped Neil to construct it. They laid it on a bed of crushed rock to create a level base, because there are a lot of surface roots from the nearby pine tree. I decorated it with some bunting Mum and I made for Grace's rainbow birthday party a couple of years ago.

We've moved the toy kitchen and some little chairs in so far. I have ambitions of sewing some little curtains, and appliqueing a picture in an embroidery hoop to hang on the wall.

As soon as I get that done, I'll post some pictures of the cubby's interior.

I hope it's as cute as the outside!
