Every year since they were first engaged in 2014, 26-year-old Ruby Smoot and her 28-year-old husband Austin have spent their New Year's Eve building a "blanket fort" in their living room.<br /><br />This is their 6th annual playfully named "Fort Night."<br /><br />The adorable time-lapse video, taken in their Utah home on New Year's Eve 2019, shows the pair turning a collection of boxes, chairs and sheets into a cosy couples hideaway.<br /><br />Ruby told Newsflare: "The tradition started when we were engaged and had recently moved to a town where we didn’t really know anyone. <br /><br />"We didn’t want to leave our dog home alone and drive to one of our home towns for New Years so we decided to just make a fort at home and make crepes at midnight instead. <br /><br />"It’s been a fun tradition ever since! We’ve even had other people come join us for it. We’ve made a lot of forts so it probably only takes about half an hour to make one."
