Treehouse Anyone???

Well this is how it began. A big stack of wood. After a lot of creativity, sweat, and hard work the treehouse is finally finished. You guys will make lots of childhood memories on this stack of wood. Never forget the long hours that Daddy and Grandad put in to make this a reality for you. They love you so much and this is the labor of their love!!

Day 1 - So far so good. Daddy is still smiling and Grandad is hard at work!


McKinney, you were the most excited about the construction of the treehouse. You watched in curiosity and wanted to help at every step of the way... until you got bored!!

They look pretty tired. They put in about 10 hours on several different Saturdays. I don't know what the final tally was on time spent. But it was A LOT!!

This was roofing day. There were storms coming so they were very determined to get the shingles on. They accomplished that in one day!! Great job!!

At this point you guys can really see the treehouse starting to take form. You want to play in it, but it isn't quite safe enough yet. Soon, very soon it will be complete!!

We are getting very close now. Walls are up, roof is done, doors are built. Not long now!

Daddy with his little buddy!


The finished product....



It looks so good. McKinney, in a few weeks we will celebrate the "grand opening" of the treehouse at your birthday party. What a fun gathering place this will be. I can't wait to see you guys with your friends using your imaginations and enjoying being out in God's creation.
