Creative kids!

Ethan and Tyler tore down their old "cabin" and built a new and improved "cabin" in a new location. Their old cabin had started out as a fort of logs, then was changed to a fort with plywood walls, then a metal roof, and then another floor, and so on...but it was too short for Ethan and he was having a hard time getting around in it...so they decided it was time to start over. Only this time they were going to have a plan... So these are pictures of their new "cabin"!

...complete with bird house, basket of flowers, and a cooler...
Ethan and Tyler have a new four-wheeler, well at least new to them. Grandpa is trading them the four-wheeler for work, so they are having to work it off this summer. They are putting it to good use by making lots of rough trails around the property...
Kailee, Alyssum, and Adams have caught on to the creativity and are putting scrap lumber to good use. They built this "airplane" out of straightened nails and pieces of leftover wood. They were really hoping to get it off the ground!

They also built this little fort... Amazing what fun some scrap lumber, bent nails, pieces of rope, and a small set of tools can be!
