oh my gosh it’s happening. it’s truly happening. and fast!
we are all so excited over here watching our home transform before our eyes.
it took me a little while to get used to how big the new addition looks from the outside and how different our house looks from our attached neighbor. but after a few days i began to fall in love and sort of like the whole off-kilter look. i like being a bit eccentric:)
we certainly are the tallest house on the block now and hannah’s view is amazing, overlooking the neighborhood roof tops.
one of her role models is julia butterfly hill who lived in a california redwood for almost two years. with her new room high up in the treetops she will feel a little like julia.
the roof and cedar shakes begin on monday along with the stair case and interior.
we are so very lucky to have been gifted this project by my dad and are so appreciative for his generosity. it still feels like a dream.
i love that we are getting closer and closer to using up every available inch in our home to it’s fullest. but don’t worry i have a few more ideas up my sleeve.
yes, i was so inspired by julia butterfly’s story when i saw the documentary quite a few years ago! your daughter is very lucky to be getting such a tree-house like room. exciting for you all, too.
So exciting, and what a wonderful space this will be. I like how it looks from the outside!
