Church Back Yard Renovation

Scott and I are very involved in helping make our church more kid friendly. Last year we had the nursery renovation. That was a ton of work and it was so rewarding to see the payoff. This year I got bids for our backyard and our council approved the project thankfully. Check out what we had before:
Would you let your kids play on this? Or this?

Or this ground? We wouldn't let anybody in the backyard because it was such a liability.



It had danger written all over it.

I had planned our very first Vacation Bible School (post to come soon) to run after the yard was finished. The very first day of VBS was the day we were allowed to walk on the new sod. And I am so glad it all worked out because check it out now! It is an amazing transformation.

More kids enjoying the new play structure.



I am so happy and proud to be a part of this change at our church. It is rewarding to see the end result and to see the children enjoy where we are headed and focused.
