Kenna is 9!

Miss Kenna Lei turned 9!
She is such a funny sweet girl!!
Her braces will be coming off soon! She has been such a trooper during all of it!
She is our little fashionista! She loves her combat boots and skinny jeans !
She has such a tender and sweet spirit! I hope she knows how wonderful and important it is to keep that all her life! 
She is also our resident "goof monkey" and she loves to be it!
She loves to play legos and barbies and plush dolls. She loves to ride her bike and play on the trapeze bar. She loves to read "rainbow magic" and also "Cam Jansen" and classic stories! She is a tiny little peanut and is in the .05th percentile for her age.
She is such a doll and I adore her so much!
Happy birthday MyKenna!!!

He build a box around it that opens

and closes

Then he put the side shelf

He then put up the side shelf
and then the shelves went in

Same on the other side
Here is what it looked like when the shelves are all in

then he did the finish work

each area was essentially "framed" to finish all the edges
Then staining....The wost part!!!
All stained and ready to go!
Bed is still functional!! YAY
We used a piece of wood and put the pad on it and covered it with the fabric and stapled it on
Then he screwed that board to the top of the hide a bed box top piece
and there is it! fits like a glove!
then the pillows and curtains back up!
Book all in and in their place!
