Spring break twenty fourteen

Since we don't have the boys this Spring break Shan and I made a, "wish list"(chores). Coming off a long winter there are a lot of good old fashioned chores that need to be tended to around the farm. We planted our spring garden - broccoli, peas & carrots as well as some new flowers in our planting pots. Shan found those old windows in the basement last year and look cool in the garden and reflect light into the soil to help germinate the seeds. We repaired our tree swing with a slightly used skateboard he boys had, and used last years tube rope too secure it. We cleaned the barn, mowed the lawn, painted the picnic table and the front door. Lastly and sadly we are not finished yet, still have five days left of spring break. Still on the list is a big dump run and a load of gravel....(weather permitting)
