Zach's new bed

Our good friends Mike and Charlotte moved into a new home and all three of their girls got new beds, so they graciously offered us a loft bed for FREE! Jeff and I had talked awhile back about getting a bed like this for Zach but they are so pricey, we weren't sure when/if it would happen.

Well, thanks to the Glass family, it happened last weekend! Jeff disassembled it at their house and reassembled it in Zach's room this past Saturday. There was a mishap with the ladder so Jeff used his handyman skills and fashioned a new ladder which Zach requested to be painted green, since that is his favorite color. Thankfully, we were able to keep Zach's full size bed in his room along with the loft bed, to have for guests and also for Zach to sleep in when he wants to (he told us he still likes that bed sometimes).

Ava LOVES the loft bed and we have found her up there playing several times this week...I almost think she likes it more than he does. She is going to get a special treat Friday night when Zach spends the night over at cousin Jackson's house...she gets to sleep in his loft bed! She is very excited about this, and Zach said it was ok :)

Here are some pictures of his new bed!

The new bed has already opened up more creative opportunities for our little builder!

Thanks Glass family (particularly Sophie) for the new bed!
