A vine covered cottage

The English ivy that covers the bed at the back of the house has really taken off this season.
The leaves are super big and it's growing like crazy. I have to keep trimming it so it doesn't cover the dining room windows. I love the way it looks but it does worry me that it will damage the cedar shingles somehow. I think I just have to keep an eye on it and make sure it doesn't uproot any of the individual shingles and let water in.  But I sure love the way it looks. I always wanted to live in the vine covered cottage and, well, now I've got me wish :)
