Our New Table :) Picnic Table :)

Kids and I build this picnic table and benches the other day with a couple of boxes of help and a bunch of 2x4's. We bought it as a kit idea from Princess Auto and got a couple extra benches. The uprights came in the kit and we just added 2x4's and followed the directions :)

 The boys did the cutting, the girls took care of the screws/washers and the we took turns on the drill. It's not square, it's not even.. but it's ours and we are ok with that :) It was a wonderful group project!! 

First snack on the picnic table :) 

It's not perfect, but what is?? 

 We are going to sand it a bit and get the letters off and Papa is going to trim the ends to get rid of the green and even them up and then we will find a stain for it. 

Beautiful side..

From the other side.. a bit more reveling about our home life :) 

Laundry drying on the line, hay bales hidden under trees to keep them out of the rain (makes a great 1st step to tree climbing Hey L??) the fire pile waiting to be burnt as well as the blue wheel barrow full of sticks to be burnt later, the stroller in the shade by the tree, boxes from our project laying on the ground.. 

But mostly I see a Family.
