Tree house...nearly done...

Chris is so close now. Just a few more cedar shake siding pieces to attach to the front of the tree house and then he can say he's officially done with the siding. Three of the tree house walls have aluminum siding and the front has cedar shake.








It's been a labor of love and Chris has learned quite a bit about construction throughout the last three months. We'll spend the winter plotting how we want to finish the interior (which is MY FAVORITE PART)!! Chris is hoping to decorate the exterior for Christmas with lights and evergreen bows. It's definitely more charming than I ever imagined. I can't wait to fill it with all kinds of family memories.
