Weekend Projects – Bench building with the Family

Nothing like spending the weekend with the family. Even better is when the kids are all in to do some “building”.

We got our hands on some true 2″ x 8″ barn wood this past summer and it was begging to be turned into some nice benches for the front yard. A few cuts from the saw, some screws, a drill; and the kids have helped build their first set of benches.

Can’t wait to show these off in the front yard. Of course Lionel wasn’t satisfied and wants to build a full play house indoors with a bunk bed and 2nd floor. A house in a house if you will… we’ll have to talk him into settling with a tree house/fort.
