Well as you can see I am not outside on this 4th, it is raining and cold out. They have forcasted thunder storms and a good amount of rain! :( But here is what we did yesterday and this morning!!! 
Grandpa and Dad dug out and twisted the tree house, so that the slide goes down sideways, and thankfully now does not launch anyone! :) They also riped the sides off the tree house!!
Fern thought this was all good fun!!
Formulating plans!!
Riley is a helper!! That evening they had the sides mostly redone, but then ran out of nails!! Opps!
Today we all headed out early to try to beat the rain! Our neighbor across the street was cleaning out and figured his 13 year old daughter did not need this car anymore, Fern is enjoying it immensely!!
Here are our super workers!! We have a roof!!! Yea!!
Dan and Daddy had ALOT of "help"! :) Isn't Jake a cutie!
Nearly finished!! They boys are enjoying the view! They are looking towards the house.
Cheese! Happy 4th of July!!
Fern is a bit happier not to have to share the slide! :)
And Fern gets something just for her!! Our neighbor next door figured her 10 year old daughter would not be using this swing! So we re-roped it with purple rope and Fern is in heaven! Her very own swing, now you all will know where I am when I do not answer the phone!! :) It is very nice to have the youngest kids on the street! We are getting some great hand me down toys!! :)
Finished!! It is hard to see but the purple bucket is on a pulley, and eventually Dan will put wood shingles on the roof. Not too long after this we were freezing to death and it started sprinkling, and so we are now enjoying the Muppets!!
