This is Sarah’s garden (she designed it). We just through the bark on to finish it off… Look brilliant!

We had a contractor chop all the trees, but me and Jackson were on firewood splitting and bark chipping duty!

Jack was helping me run the splitter. He loved playing with it! I think that day we got about 1/3 of my winter wood supply so we’ve got a bit left to go!

Only real problem was that these are pretty loud tools so it’s not helping baby Olivia get her beauty sleep!
