Last week Nils had his birthday.. 7 years old already, how time flies.. Dad promised Nils a treehouse but the tree was too small so went for the polehouse option. Dad took the day off on Nils's birthday and together we set out to buy the first part of the pole house, 6 poles of 4 meters long. As a milestone, dad planned to have 6 poles in the ground set in concrete covering a space of 3 meters by 2 meters. Bought a can of black tar paint to protect the poles against the elements and got to work. Nils helped with painting the poles and dad did some groundforce digging.. Now we wait for the finances to be healthy again so we can continue bying wood for the polehouse. Friday afternoon my dad came over to celebrate Nils's birthday with the friends and family. But first we went to visit mom and put some flowers on her grave.. Saurday was the day of the festivities and Nils spent the whole morning looking out for the guests who were to arrive in the afternoon.. The weather was not too good but we had our party tent were we set up the garden table and pretended that it was a sunny day. Friends, family and neighbours, most of them turned up and Nils had the "best birthday in all times" as he said it at the end of the day. So thank you all for the presents and mostg of all to have you as our guests.
