The story of the tree house...


There is a field behind the church down the street from our house. Part of the fence blew down and Courtney and friends like to go 'explore' in the field. One day they discovered an old, abandoned tree fort of sorts! She has adopted it as her own and has spent many a carefree hour down there playing, climbing, swinging on a rope, etc. Last Saturday she and Pat loaded the wheelbarrow with tools and supplies and spent 3 hours making improvements to 'her' tree house. They added a swing, made some repairs and have begun to enlarge it out a bit more on one side. What a fun thing for her! She is such a fun girl, and so young at heart still. I am glad she still loves to climb trees, jump in puddles, roll down the grassy hillside and jump on the trampoline!
