The Redneck Tree House

We have a very serious project going on here at our house!  Cooper has decided to build himself a tree house.  He is obsessed!  On a positive note it has kept him very busy.  He spends hours dragging wood pieces around, trying to nail screws into the tree and climbing.  I just hope it doesn't end in stitches or broken bones!  The only problem now is Ryder has figured out how to climb the steps up into the tree.  A 2 year old does not belong in a tree.  Cooper had his friend over and they spent hours working.  We have been able to save a few parts from our wooden swing set that didn't make it a week and blew away in a storm.  This project has been so good for the boys.  I can let them go out to play and they stay in one spot.  They have been known to roam!

One day Cooper wanted to go get some nails at the lumber yard and I wasn't able to take him.  He then headed over to Papa Wayne's to see if he would take him.  Cooper has the Grandparents figured out!  Instead of taking him he gave him 8 inch long nails!!  I hope no one drives a vehicle around our trees because they are guaranteed to get a flat tire!!
Jack came over to play. 
The Little Helper that has figured out how to climb trees! 
So proud he found an old piece of wire-very safe! 
Miss Emerie came to help.
Teamwork!



A good carpenter can hammer screws into a tree!!  I tried to tell him but he won't listen.

Very safe! 
We will make him tough!
