Treehouse

This is the tree house my cousins built for their kids/nieces/nephews. It boasts three levels, the top of which is a loft, which you can see best in the second and third pictures below. There's also a rock wall on the back. The windows bring in plenty of light, and there's enough room up there to imagine the space into anything a kid could think of. I know I like it, so now I just have to figure out how to get one built in our new yard. We're not very handy--Cade and I!

From left to right--Kelly, Mara, Katie, Emma, Nate. This is from our trip to VT last summer, stopping on the way home to visit my cousins in CT. My cousin has really great kids, and all of the girls had a wonderful time playing together. Kelly read to the girls, and the littles blew bubbles together. Nate helped them climb and pushed the swings. Mara just enjoyed the chance to run wild in the big yard without being told to be careful and watch out for something breakable!
