Simple

We needed to make a ladder for our chickens. Evie eagerly spaced the rungs. As I readied the nail gun (I love my man's shop!), our kids proceeded to yell "fire in the whole!". Way to funny.We have been trying to use every inch of scraps including the ladder. The kids got excited and carried me away with them: The teeter-todder they fashioned using one of daddy's waiting tree pieces. They even designed handles.

Naturally, Everett kept going . . . . We now had a very large balance to play with.
This? This is a hole waiting for a hammock post. Why not fill it up with water from the rain buckets with once again a recycled item? As a parental note this is awesome! A water hose tends to get out of control, and someone has to wind it up. Buckets have let me say "yes" to water play more often.

More on this later but this is our new homestead accessory. A year ago one of his parents said no. Boy was Evie excited to get it going.
