We needed a few extra supplies from our local hardware store. The school graciously gave us funds to get this garden in tip top shape for the beginning of the year and a very special party.
A local boy scout group donated time and materials, and built these lovely planter boxes, stained them, and prepped with a little bit of dirt.
We took out the old stepping stones, and had the kids paint them bright colors.
We added a few more to make hopscotch.
We also had some painting work to brighten up these awnings. Just a little elbow grease later, they are ready for kids.
Add in a little playtime, and this project was in the bag!
We did this project not only for the kids returning to school, but we have a special playground dedication coming up this weekend at Pine Lane Elementary. We will be unveiling the new playground structure dedicated to a very special little boy who lost his life due to illness. We will remember him always, and I have been blessed to know his mother, father, and older brother. For more information about this very special dedication, please visit http://pinelanepto.org/ for more information on PJ's and Pancakes taking place this Sunday August 17th.
