The Retreat - Creator: Ray

The retreat is a place to play and have fun. As you can see from this first picture, Rachel really thinks outside the box.  She made the front facade of a house just as a background prop to her awesome front yard.

 Here you can see the dog house upper wing.  Not sure what to call it really.  She says it's like a tree house.  Very cook.  The guy is sitting in a chair next to a table. 

 Here you can see the stairs leading down the the doghouse underneath.  And, the awesome tree, flowers and horse in the yard.

 A view of the pool.  This one cracked me up.  The yellow to the left is a slide and the door is so you can get in... of course!!!  The dog house also has a door so you can easily access the pool.  And, above the door are chicken legs.  Yumm...

A top down view in all it's goodness.

Getting Things Started

Well, here it is.  A good portfolio for my family's creative outlets.  With 3 kids in the house we do a lot of art projects, building, and playing.  Our son is only 4.5 months old, so you won't see him much here yet.  But, my daughters are very busy.  So you'll be seeing a lot of them. 

One of your favorite things to do lately is build with Legos.  My youngest daughter, Rachel (Ray) got two big house building Lego kits this last Xmas from Santa.  Since them we have been building like crazy.  The side bar will have a list of all our lego kits that we have and I'll add to it as our Lego collection grows.  It'll give any of you curious enough an idea about what pieces we have.

On this blog I'll be posting anything creative that any members of the family may do.  From the girls you'll see sports, artwork, building projects, and maybe even a few class projects thrown in there.  My hubby is rebuilding a car engine currently and I love just about anything that has to do with fiber.  (of course we love to build Legos too!)  I'll still be keeping up with my blog www.alltwistedup.blogspot.com So check that one out too.
