Life for America’ Got Talent winner Grace VanderWaal is pretty great right now.
On Wednesday’s finale, the 12-year-old singer and ukeleleist was crowned the victor of season 11 of the talent competition. With the $1 million winnings, VanderWaal told ET that she hoped to spend a portion of it on a “sick treehouse” with “zip lines, bridges, everything.”

To her surprise, Pete Nelson, the host of Animal Planet’s Treehouse Masters, heard VanderWaal’s wishes, and recorded a special message for her.
“Congratulations on your win, you are so amazing! And I’m thrilled to think that you mentioned you wanna have a treehouse built,” Nelson stated. “I mean, seriously? Because we could do that! We could be at your house tomorrow — bridges, ziplines, the whole thing. Really, this is so fun, so exciting! Congratulations, and call me!”
