April 23 - Nothing Makes me Feel Better Than a Project

Today - true simple pleasures. There is nothing that makes me happier than our family working together on a project.  Especially when I know my husband is passing on a little of his practical knowledge to the boys. In this case about winches, come-alongs and pump jacks.  But also about solving mechanical problems. About being innovative, self reliant, and safe with machines and heavy weights.

We're starting our first spring in the new house, and they are building me a raised bed ... which means I'll be trying to grow a few things.

Trooper was on hand to supervise.
