A treehouse sits in the front yard of the Grapin family home in Falls Church, Va., on Nov. 30, 2011. Mark Grapin, walking in background, an Army National Guard chief warrant officer, testified before the Fairfax County Board of Zoning and Appeals Wednesday in support of an ordinance that would allow him to keep a treehouse in his front yard. An initial hearing in September rebuffed Grapin's attempt to keep his treehouse in place for his two sons, but an appeal was allowed and Wednesday's hearing granted an ordinance that gives the family five years until the treehouse must be removed.
