Recreating Memories

When I was a little girl I would play with a little tree house toy that had little people whenever I'd go visit my Ge & Papa's house.  I have many fond memories of sitting on the floor of their farmhouse & playing with my brother & sister.  Somewhere through the years the toy was lost in one of my grandparent's moves around the country.  I hadn't forgotten about the little tree house though.  When I was describing it to Barrett he remembered playing with the same little toy at his preschool.  That only further spurred my desire to find a tree house toy- so where else, but Ebay!  $27 later & I'm not sure which of the 4 of us was the most excited to see the inside of that box...

Max played with the tree house until it was bedtime the first night we had it.  Then first thing the next morning he ran to get the tree house & played with it until it was time to leave for Mother's Day Out.  I hope my children will have fond memories of the same little toy that I loved as a child.  

Sorry these pictures aren't the best- the sun was setting & creating an awful light in our living room.
