This playhouse features a growing tree, which makes it also a “treehouse.” Maj. Shane R. Floyd, a pilot stationed at Seymour Johnson Air Force Base, built it for his three children (Foster 6, Vivienne, 3 and Carly, 3 months old). In the summer, the children plant flowers in pots on the deck. Maj. Floyd and his wife, Tiffany, have spent many hours of fun with their children and his building was truly a gift of love. Shane is my son-in-law, Tiffany is my daughter, and the children are my grandchildren.
