Project #3 - Play Yard

The play yard took a beating last summer.  We have 10 g-kids 4 and under and it gets used a lot!  I started cleaning up this week.  I moved the fence back about 4 feet and that meant I had to move the tire mountain - I am so glad I did - it looks soooo much better!  I still have lots to do with it but right now my focus is on getting things cleaned up.

I will add more fun stuff as the spring/summer goes on.

 This is how it looked last Saturday whe we had our last snow fall.

 I moved back the front fence and it was right next to the tire mountain so I had to move that back about a foot

  Rearranging things - in the back ground you can see the bistro patio and my cullinary herb garden cleaned out.  

 This is the whole mess I made today!

 This is the little play house my dad made for our kids years ago.  The dirt in the little flower bed had sunk so I took the dirt that was in the tires and filled it back.  It will be much happier now.

 Here it is rebuilt - now I need to add more bark chips and fill things back in.

This is the front edge, with the bricks all put back in place - the make a great edging for the lawnmower to mow right over.  The little space between them and the fence are a nice little flower area.

Thanks for stopping by!
Today I am thankful for the sun shine and pleasant warm temperatures - truly a blessing for an Idaho girl!
