This spring has been full of projects (especially for Aaron). His parents bought him some sort of saw for his birthday and he decided to test it out. He started with a couple of 2 step step stools that turned out great! The next thing I knew he was building raised planters for our garden. He was just finishing those up when the kids and I went out of town. While we were gone for the weekend he built a sandbox, a patio table and a shelf for Zoe's room in the shape of a Z. Since he has completed a bench to go with the table! I don't have pictures of all of his projects to post today, but here's Zoe painting her "Z" shelf.
The finished product!
The kids were "helping" me install a blackout shade. I ran downstairs to get the drill and came back to find Liam standing on his night stand and Zoe in the window sill. Such little rascals!
Thanks to Aaron, we had great raised beds for planting a garden this year. We'll see what kind of luck we have. We've planted tomatoes, carrots, cucumbers, peas, radishes, lettuce, raspberries, blueberries, and we already had a strawberry patch. We've already been enjoying the radishes and strawberries!
