The Tree House
The brothers mowed lawns throughout their neighborhood to earn money to help pay for supplies. Carter and Anton had convinced their father to help them build a tree house last year, but snow covered the ground before they were able to get started.
Through much anticipation, Carter and Anton had waited and prepared, and they were ecstatic that it was finally time to dive into their project. First, they had to go to the lumber yard with their father and purchase the wood. They spent an entire weekend measuring, cutting, and assembling the wood to create the floor, walls, and roof; it was very exciting to see the lumber transform into a small house.

Every evening, Carter, Anton, and their father would spend several hours nailing pieces of wood together until the tree house was finally complete. Then they went to the paint store, where Carter and Anton took nearly two hours to agree on the color lime green. Painting their tree house sounded more fun that it was; the sanding, priming, and rolling paint on each section of the house was both challenging and time consuming.

After more than a month of hard work and dedication, the tree house was finally complete.
