We've been spending the cold winter weekend outside (as much as I hate the cold, I've actually helped). Today I used the extra boards from our raised garden beds and built the boys a "Tool Shop". It's just two partial walls connected to the fence, but they can hammer away at it all they like :)
I'm really proud of myself actually. Their doorway has a piece of wood they have to step over so we can keep any toddler friends who visit out of danger. Through the summer I expect we'll add a work bench and a seating bench and lots of slightly protruding nails will be added by the boys.
Here's a little sneak peak of the garden. We've decided to dive into raised beds and a drip watering system this year. We've moved the greenhouse and built a new foundation for it. Currently we have peas, radish, spinach and lettuce growing in the greenhouse. We ended up having 10 raised beds, each 12x4. It's been a lot of work digging the whole yard up during winter, but it should be awesome come spring!
