Treehouse Adventures!Daddy has been working for almost two months on building this amazing treehouse for Abby! My brother, David, came in July to help get it started and it is ALMOST finished. Daddy has been taking advantage of the AMAZING weather we are having and is finishing up the painting.
I have to say, it is a pretty wonderful place to play! We all had lunch up top yesterday and even Dusty climbed up the ladder, checked out the view, and then discovered the slide! Abby thought that was the greatest. They then started racing each other up the stairs.
In addition to the wonderful slide, swings, swinging disk, and top deck... there is a super cool climbing wall on the back side! Abby has mastered both sides and kept trying to get Dusty to try... she needs a sibling! She has taken advantage of her coo-coo pox (aka chicken pox) and has spent the past two days out there!
We decided about three months ago that our old playset was too "small" for her. She would play on it for about ten minutes and then be bored. Although she did spend some time out there swinging her babies and pushing them down the slide... Curious George is crazy on the slide!
So we wanted a more age appropriate version and Daddy took on the challenge of building it! He has worked very hard and actually, Joel and Calvin... our friends and neighbors... ha
ve also had a small hand in it! Thank you guys!
ve also had a small hand in it! Thank you guys! So it's almost done and the old one has been stripped, restained, and is on Craig's List. What we sell that one for will pay for about half of the materials for the new one! So come on over. We do star gazing and wine tastings up there at night! Soon we'll be sipping hot chocolate up there!
