The boys have been busy again working on their log cabin (there's nothing like a log cabin to make a young boy hurry up and finish his spelling). Last fall they started cutting down pine trees from out back, delimbed them and hauled them up to the pasture to start a log cabin. The cooler weather has made it prime time to get back to work.
They now have 4 walls nearly completed and are contemplating how to put in a sky light, a roof and a loft, and some beds. I've had to fight them off for the salvaged lumber and supplies lately. We have forts and cabins and building projects galore around here, which, in my opinion, is the greatest thing that boys can spend their time doing.
And the best part about it is that when they work together they actually forget about fighting with each other.

And the wonderful thing about all these boy projects is that when they become adult men they will be so handy around the house...Way to go Mom! Nothing better than a man that knows his way around a tool box : )
ReplyDeleteTheir log cabin looks like it's going to be a really cool place to hang out.
