Hello Just wanted to let you know how happy we are with Samantha's house. It is too cute! Not to mention, well made. We have experienced some wet weather, what we call "sideways rain", and Sam's indoor area remained dry. I stained the exterior with Thompson's cedar tinted proofing, and the result was very eye appealing. We have recently taken Sam in after a family death, so her life at 12 has experienced some change. Your product has given us great satisfaction in providing her loving care and adequate protection from the elements. Once again, thank you!
