I've wanted to post photos of this ever since my parents finished building it but it wasn't until Friday night that I was able to get a really decent picture. Last summer, my dad designed this small barn (or your basic lawn mower/gardening shed/storage area disguised as a barn) and built it with my mom - and with additional help from my brother, Dad's brother and Mom's Dad.
My dad is pretty amazing - it's hard to believe that he designed this himself. I especially love the addition of the Ohio Star (which was my mom's idea - she's the quilter).
It's prime allergy season for me right now. I've spent the entire day in utter misery, cursing ragweed and the entire month of September. If I'm this bad off tomorrow I'm going to go ahead and make an appointment for an allergy shot. This is ridiculous.
Luckily, Jake thinks my pink nose is cute. He found it especially adorable that, even though I was miserable, I was still crocheting away. I started Mr. Funky's monkey and I know I followed the pattern for its head but...it's huge and oddly shaped compared to the body. I'll be interested to see how it looks once I stuff it and sew the two parts together.
Now I'm off to attempt to sleep as it's the only way I can escape Dr. Evil Itchy Nose....
