No Boys Allowed

So Mare and I were left to our own devices one Friday night a couple of weeks ago (Kels and Liz were out partying). What are two crazy college-aged girls supposed to do when they are the only ones left in the apartment? Build a fort, of course! Now you might think that fort-making is only for youngsters, but you, my friend, are mistaken.

We had so much fun planning it all out and building it. And the best part of all is that we actually slept in it! That's right. We even took our mattresses off our beds and put them into our fort so that we could sleep in comfort! It was pure magic! The only part we were missing was the "No Boys Allowed" sign on the front door. (Don't worry... we thought of putting one up, but just didn't get around to it!)

I also learned that one does not need safety pins to pin sheets together. Since we didn't have any in our possession, we improvised. I found some packing tape, straight pins and push pins, and those worked pretty well, but Mare thought that earrings might work. And they did... very nicely! They even added a little pizzaz to our fort!
