Fun in the yard

I'm not bragging here, but we have been having some beautiful weather in Northern California. We've been spending a lot of time in the yard, pulling weeds and planting and getting ready for summer. I had this idea to make my son a sand/rock table and my husband built this little table on the weekend. We found this little table out at the dumps, they have a recycled goods store out there which is so nifty. My husband added the sides and gave it a fresh coat of paint. My son is loving it!

And while planting vegetables we made this green bean teepee. Maybe this will encourage my son to eat green beans? I sure hope so.

The play table is wonderful; he's going to enjoy it so much. And I love your green bean teepee. Maybe he could help you tend the beans as they grow and be more interested in eating the resulting product later.

I had a green bean teepee but now it's a jasmine teepee! Times change when they grow up!

Oh, man! Both the rock table and the teepee look fantastic! (I've always wanted to make one of those bean teepees, but don't really have any excuse. Maybe if I start letting the cats go outside . . .)

What a great idea for the table! I just planted green beans last weekend and they are all starting to peak through the soil so I will have to get my teepee made soon!
